About Sun River Health Sun River Health has a rich history of
providing quality, affordable health care to communities in need.
Founded in the early 1970s by four African American women in
Peekskill, New York, the organization was established to address
the lack of accessible health services in their community. With the
help of a small federal grant, the first Sun River Health site
opened its doors in 1975. Over the years, Sun River Health has
grown into a comprehensive Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC)
system with over 45 locations, serving more than 250,000 patients
across the Hudson Valley, New York City and Long Island. Our
exceptional primary care practitioners, specialists and support
staff are dedicated to delivering high-quality care to all
individuals, regardless of their ability to pay. In December 2018,
Sun River Health expanded its reach by merging with Brightpoint
Health, an FQHC network offering integrated medical, behavioral and
social support services in New York City. This merger allowed us to
enhance our services and continue our mission under the unified
name of Sun River Health. Our Culture At Sun River Health, we
