Our Values

WELCOMING: We respect the worth, RESPONSIVE: We advocate for and dignity, and equality of every person. provide services to address evolving community needs. IMPACTFUL: We provide effective, quality care that improves the health of INTEGRATED: We focus on the health our service population. and well-being of the whole person.

TRUSTED: We provide a professional and INCLUSIVE: We embrace diversity in all safe environment for our patients, clients, of its forms. volunteers, and staff. Our Name In 2016, we changed our name from Fan Free Clinic to Health Brigade.

The need was clear. We hadn’t been located in the Fan area of Richmond since 1997. In a time of rapid health care changes, we can’t guarantee entirely “free” services into our future if we are to remain sustainable. And, most importantly, we have always been more than a Medical Clinic. Our Health Outreach team touches hundreds of lives when visiting neighborhoods, gathering places, centers and prisons. Our Mental Health Program spans across short-term sessions in the medical clinic to more comprehensive community-based mental health services – including psychiatry, individual therapy and psycho-social groups.

Our name conveys two thoughts: 1) “Health” is what we do, and 2) “Brigade” is how we do it. Think Bucket Brigade – a human chain working together for the common good, circling back around to refill and keep the formation going.

We hope you’ll find this annual report to be informative as an expression of our name, our values and our mission.
