Talkeetna Clinic
Communities We Serve
Sunshine Community Health Center (SCHC) is a federally qualified health center that offers comprehensive health care to people living throughout the Upper Susitna Valley of Alaska. SCHC was founded in 1986 through a grassroots effort to bring the first basic health care option to this impoverished rural region. SCHC's Sunshine Clinic is located in the Y Community, a crossroads centered among the communities of Talkeetna, Willow and Trapper Creek. Its service area stretches nearly 160 miles along both sides of Alaska's George Parks Highway, from Willow north to Denali National Park, and into the bush communities west of the highway.
Sunshine Transit
Due to the increase in fuel costs we have had to raise our ticket prices.
You may ride the van for $3.00 one way or purchase a multiple ride ticket for $20.00. Tickets may be purchased at the Roadhouse, Sunshine Clinic, Flying Squirrel Bakery Cafe, or the Upper Susitna Senior Center. There is a multi-ride pass discount for residents- you must produce a photo ID as proof of residency.

Sunshine Community Health Center offers accessible, proactive, quality health care regardless of an ability to pay.
