Southcentral Foundation (SCF) is an Alaska Native-owned healthcare organization serving an

Matanuska-Susitna Valley, and 60 rural villages in the Anchorage Service Unit (ASU). SCF's
first P.L. 638 contract with the Alaska Area Native Health Service began in 1984 to provide
dentistry, optometry, community health representatives and injury control services. Substance
abuse treatment was added in 1987.
In 1998, SCF assumed ownership and management of the Anchorage Native Primary Care
Center, which serves the entire Native population of the state - an estimated 130,682 people. In
January 1999, SCF and the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium signed an agreement to
take over management of the Alaska Native Medical Center from the Indian Health Service.
