Project Description

St. Thomas Community Health Center (STTCHC), New Orleans, LA completed financing in March, 2011 to purchase and renovate a 10,000 sq. ft. historic building, consolidating the health center’s three existing sites and enabling the center to double the number of patients it currently serves. STTCHC was established in 1987 (originally as St. Thomas Community Health Services) with the mission of providing comprehensive adult, pediatric, obstetrical, and behavioral medical care to the uninsured, underinsured and working poor residents of the New Orleans community. The organization’s operations were severely disrupted by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, but STTCHC managed to quickly reopen to serve community residents impacted by the storm, many newly unemployed and now uninsured.
