Mission

Inner City Health is a Christ-centered healthcare home for underserved individuals where consistent, high-quality treatment is provided in an atmosphere of genuine respect. We express our love for Jesus Christ and our compassion for those in need through our deep concern for their physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

Background Statement

From the beginning, Inner City health began as an idea shared by a husband and wife team: Jan Williams, a counselor, and Dr. Bob Williams, who Dr. Duane Claassen later joined. Founded in 1983, ICHC reflected their Christian faith and a sense of needing to do more to serve the underserved based on their experiences gained from ministry and medical missions.

Together, they created a clinic in Denver's historic Five Points, a community with the most need: the highest infant mortality rate, lowest income level, and least access to affordable health care.

Foreshadowing modern trends in integrated medicine, ICHC was one of the earliest providers in the region to recognize the critical need to integrate dental and mental health into medical care.

Blessed by the community's support and responsible fiscal practices, ICHC grew from 2,000 annual patient visits in 1983 to a full-fledged family health center with multiple programs, integrated services, and Medicaid enrollment.

In 2009, the health center moved from Five Points to a larger facility at 3800 York Street, and today, we're expanding to serve more people in our 40th year in Denver to continue our mission to serve those most in need with respect and compassion.
