Healing is Justice. Healing is Freedom.
Freedom Community Clinic provides community-centered healing for the people’s bodies, minds, and souls. We integrate and value ancestral, Indigenous, and holistic healing with the strengths of Western medicine. All services are offered for free and/or at community scale to underserved communities in the Bay Area.
OUR PROGRAMS
Community & School-Based Healing Clinics and Collaborations
Freedom Community Clinic partners with 60+ organizations, institutions, and schools to provide community-based healing and school-based healing.
Bilingual services range from half-day healing clinics, school-based electives, consultations on creating healing-centered frameworks for students and staff, and workshops for holistic healing that provide community members, students, and staff with tools, techniques, and direct healing services.
Our Community Healing Centers & Ancestral Healing Farm
Based in in Oakland, CA, we offer free and/or community scale healing services at two of our Community Healing Centers (called Community Healing Sanctuaries) and throughout the Bay Area. Services range from massage therapy, community acupuncture, energy healing, integrative medicine consultations, and more.
Our Telegraph location in Downtown Oakland serves primarily as a Community Pharmacy/Apothecary that provides free community medicine to the people.
Our Ancestral Healing Farm operates as a healing center space that grows teas and medicines for the people from global diasporic traditions including Western herbalism, traditional Chinese medicine, Ayurvedic medicine, and more.
Community Healing Apprenticeship Training Programs
The Freedom School for Healing & Justice and Promotores de Sanación apprenticeship programs have trained 75+ local Black, Brown, and immigrant people in Oakland in various whole-person healing modalities to serve their families and communities and create new cycles of generational healing.
OUR VALUES
Whole-person healing. We believe that healing does not have to happen in a medical or hospital setting. Healing is a collaborative experience that can be fun, joyful, and restorative and take place within our communities where we gather and celebrate.
Culture is community. We believe that infusing cultural practices like dance, language, ritual and other traditions into modern healing practices is medicine. By honoring the lineage of these cultural practices, we strengthen connection with self and our community.
Intergenerational power. We are organized by young people and believe in the invaluable wisdom and power of our elders. Healing requires different people from different ages, backgrounds and lived experiences to come together to care for the mind, body and spirit.
Pushing boundaries. We believe in pushing the current limitations of standard medicine in order to honor the body, mind, and spirit. We envision a health revolution that nourishes and uplifts under-resourced communities and brings care directly to those who need it most.
Racial justice. We believe in prioritizing the healing and care for Black, Brown and immigrant communities that have been historically denied access to adequate medical care and/or their own cultural healing practices.
We believe in:
HEALING IS FREEDOM IS
HEALING IS FREEDOM IS
WHY WE'RE DEDICATED TO WHOLE PERSON HEALING
Our work is more than medicine. It's a health revolution.
We envision a health revolution that nourishes and uplifts the bodies, minds, and spirits of under-resourced communities and brings care directly to where communities gather and celebrate.
