Clinical Directors Network, Inc. (CDN) is a not-for-profit clinician membership organization, practice-based research network (PBRN), and clinician training organization, founded to provide peer-initiated activities for clinicians practicing in low income, minority, and other underserved communities. CDN’s overall goal is to translate clinical research into clinical practice for the enhancement of health equity and improvement of public health.

CDN operates as a private, not-for-profit corporation, by and for an extensive network of current and future Health Center Clinical Leaders. CDN conducts project based research and educational activities in partnership with government, academic, not-for-profit, and for profit organizations. CDN was founded in 1985 as a professional peer organization, based on the demonstrated effectiveness of peer-initiated activities in promoting health care excellence, assuring and improving quality and controlling costs. 


We are a network that supports community-based health care centers, including their patients, practitioners and organizations. A community-based health care center is one that is committed to improving the overall health of individuals, families and communities by focusing on their primary medical, dental and/or behavioral well-being. We exist to advocate for meeting the health needs of underserved populations, while providing access to high quality health care, and greater social justice for all.
