FQHC Jobs in San Diego

San Diego's FQHC network includes major organizations like Family Health Centers of San Diego, La Maestra Community Health Centers, San Ysidro Health, Neighborhood Healthcare, and Vista Community Clinic. These centers serve hundreds of thousands of patients across urban, suburban, and border communities.

The region's proximity to the U.S.–Mexico border creates unique workforce needs. Bilingual (Spanish-English) community health workers and patient navigators are in especially high demand, as are professionals experienced with cross-border health issues, immigration-related social determinants of health, and culturally competent care delivery.

Enhanced Care Management (ECM) is expanding rapidly across San Diego's FQHCs, with programs targeting high-need Medi-Cal members including those experiencing homelessness, individuals with serious mental illness, and patients with multiple chronic conditions.

Behavioral Health Integration is a major focus in San Diego County, with FQHCs hiring licensed therapists, substance use counselors, and psychiatric providers to embed mental health services in primary care settings.

Community Supports programs — including housing navigation and medically supportive food — are creating new roles that combine social work skills with healthcare delivery, particularly in underserved neighborhoods along the border region.
