Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Planning for the new facility was completed by a $250,000 legislative appropriation.  The current description includes public health services not currently provided in this location. Funding is needed to replace the current sexually transmitted disease and tuberculosis clinic with a larger facility that meets the demands of the community while updating the facility to meet OSHA, ADA and fire safety standards mandated by the state.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Services Provided/Benefit to State:

 

 

 

 

 

Basic and preventive health care in a low income community that has little to no access to care. The state will benefit from a reduction in the statewide disease prevention indicator.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

The reconstruction of the Little Haiti Center will directly impact the reduction of sexually transmitted disease and tuberculosis rates; promote increased immunizations and increased access to care while addressing racial and ethnic disparities in health outcomes.
