The first community-run health center in St. Louis, Family Care Health Centers opened on May 21, 1969 in response to Carondelet's need for better medical care. It has since evolved with its community and now operates three locations, having opened its third facility on May 21, 2026, alongside its 57th anniversary. The clinic is recognized as a Patient-Centered Medical Home with a Distinction in Behavioral Health Integration, meaning medical and behavioral teams work together around evidence-based care plans. It has received four award designations from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA): Health Center Quality Leader - Bronze, Improving Health Care Access, High-Value Care, and Advancing Health Information Technology for Quality. Family Care Health Centers also earned the Best of 2024 Award for Medical Clinic in St. Louis.

The clinic sits on Holly Hills Avenue in the Carondelet area, about 0.2 miles from the Carondelet neighborhood and a short distance from the Carondelet Historical Society. Michigan Avenue is roughly 0.1 miles away, and South Broadway about 0.3 miles.

Family Care Health Centers has built an established track record on a large base of customer reviews. For a Carondelet clinic serving patients from childhood through adulthood, that history of community-rooted, integrated care is what defines it in St. Louis.
