The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health will consolidate services and close seven clinics across the county on Feb. 27, 2026, as it grapples with more than $50 million in cuts to federal, state and local funding.

While several sites will shut their doors, clinics in Glendale and Monrovia will remain open, continuing to provide key public health services for residents in the San Gabriel Valley and surrounding communities.
Public Health Clinics offer vaccinations, sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing and treatment, and tuberculosis (TB) testing and treatment. After the consolidation, services will continue at six remaining Public Health Clinics, including the sites in Glendale and Monrovia, as well as through nearby community health providers.
The Glendale clinic, located at 501 N. Glendale Ave., is expected to remain open until 2027. At that time, the North Hollywood clinic is scheduled to reopen, and the Glendale location will close. The Monrovia clinic, located at 330 W. Maple Ave., is among the sites remaining open following the February 2026 changes.
Other clinics remaining open include Central in downtown Los Angeles; the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Public Health in South Los Angeles; and sites in Pacoima and Whittier. The North Hollywood location is slated to reopen in 2027.
Seven locations will end clinic services on Feb. 27, 2026: Antelope Valley in Lancaster; the Center for Community Health (Leavy) in Los Angeles; Curtis R. Tucker in Inglewood; Hollywood Wilshire in Los Angeles; Pomona; Dr. Ruth Temple in Los Angeles; and Torrance.
Non-clinical services and programs will continue at all locations except the Dr. Ruth Temple Health Center.
According to the department, the funding reductions, totaling more than $50 million in federal, state and local grants and contracts, combined with rising operational costs have forced the consolidation. Federal funding accounts for nearly half of the department’s budget, and continued uncertainty may result in additional service disruptions.
County officials said patients affected by the closures will be connected with appropriate providers to maintain access to essential services.
