Unity Health Care

Unity Health Care is located at Suite 120, 1220 12th Street Southeast in Washington DC's 20003 zip code — a federally qualified health center (FQHC) serving DC residents in the Capitol Hill and Southwest DC adjacent communities along the 12th Street SE corridor. Unity Health Care is one of DC's largest community health center networks, operating multiple clinic sites throughout the District to provide primary care, dental care, behavioral health, and other health services to underserved DC residents on a sliding-scale fee basis regardless of insurance status or ability to pay.

Dental care at a Unity Health Care site is part of the FQHC's comprehensive health services model — integrating oral health with primary care, behavioral health, and social services in a community health setting. Unity Health Care's dental services prioritize patients who have difficulty accessing commercial dental care: uninsured residents, Medicaid recipients, homeless individuals, and low-income DC households who are otherwise cut off from the dental care market. This model makes Unity Health Care a critical part of DC's oral health safety net.

The 1220 12th Street SE address is in the Capitol Hill and Anacostia-adjacent Southeast DC community, accessible from the Navy Yard-Ballpark Metro station and the surrounding Ward 6 street network. Unity Health Care's network spans DC wards, with this 12th Street SE location serving the southeastern residential community between Capitol Hill and the Anacostia River.

For DC residents who need dental care regardless of insurance status — particularly Medicaid recipients, uninsured patients, and low-income households in Southeast DC — Unity Health Care at 1220 12th Street SE provides FQHC dental care as part of the comprehensive health services mission of DC's community health center network.
