Our Mission
and History

To assist in overcoming obstacles and serving as the bridge between the people within our community and the services that they need as pertaining to health, wellness, and practical services, and while doing so empower individuals to develop further personal and familial success, as well as participate in giving a hand up to their neighbors.

Families Together of Orange County (FTOC) is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) Look-Alike. Founded in 2003 as a nonprofit, FTOC has been committed to improving the quality of life for all Orange County families since the beginning. By providing support to parents and children and increasing access to quality healthcare services, Families Together has worked hard to make sure that everyone has a chance at a long, healthy life.

In 2015 Families Together became a community clinic and in December of 2016 it became a Federally Qualified Health Center Look-Alike after a rigorous 3-day federal inspection where FTOC became the first health center in Orange County history to pass all requirements and inspections with 100% on the first try.

Since becoming an FQHC Look-Alike, Families Together has experienced dramatic growth in its services offered and reach, adding a Wellness Center and an additional location at Garden Grove in 2019, as well as a mobile fleet with medical, dental and ambulance clinics in 2020. In the few years since becoming an FQHC, Families Together has seen growth of more than 100% every year, allowing for more people in the community to gain access to essential medical, dental, vision and behavioral health services as well as community resources, regardless of inability to pay.

We are proud members of the community and promise to always fight for the well-being of all families and continue to increase access to quality healthcare services for all. 

Families Together is a member of the Coalition of Orange County Community Health Centers and the California Primary Care Association.
