MLK Heritage Health Center

Located in the heart of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the MLK Heritage Health Center is a branch of Milwaukee Health Services, Inc., a respected Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) with a longstanding commitment to health equity. Since 1989, this nonprofit organization has delivered comprehensive care—including medical, dental, podiatry, and behavioral health services—to underserved communities throughout the city. The MLK Heritage Health Center specializes in providing culturally sensitive, accessible healthcare for families and individuals who have traditionally faced barriers to quality care.

The facility offers a robust outpatient behavioral health program featuring individual therapy, group therapy, family counseling, and psychiatric medication management. Clients can access care for substance abuse concerns through both traditional therapy and evidence-based medication-assisted treatment (MAT). Trauma-informed care is a cornerstone of the center’s therapeutic approach, ensuring clients are treated with empathy and understanding throughout the healing process. Services are available to both adults and children, with programming tailored to meet the developmental and emotional needs of each age group. By integrating physical and mental healthcare under one roof, the MLK Heritage Health Center plays a vital role in reducing disparities and improving outcomes across Milwaukee’s most vulnerable populations.
