Mahalo for a Community Health Center Week full of aloha and celebration! 🎉 We are so thankful for our health center ‘ohana - our patients, staff, community partners, and all who so generously give their aloha. Your support matters as we strive to fulfill our mission and the important kuleana of improving the health and wellness of all.

Our history: Waimānalo Health Center was conceptualized by a group of women who led a health service committee in 1988 in Waimānalo. The group advocated for continued health services in Waimānalo after a State Department of Health demonstration project was to be closed after 23 years of service. Founders Patricia Heu, Madi Silverman, Eve Anderson, Kawahine Kamakea-Ohelo and Mabel Ann Spencer represented the community to advocate for a local health center in Waimānalo. After incorporation in 1989, facility construction, and the hiring of professional staff, Waimānalo Health Center saw its first patient in January 1992 and became a federally qualified health center in 1994. Since then, WHC has continued advocating for community health and expanded services to meet the needs of our patients.
