Impact

Building healthy communities through community development.

Access to capital and access to primary care go hand in hand to improve the health of low-income communities. By investing in new and modern primary care facilities, PCDC not only enhances space and creates jobs, but it also provides an accessible, consistent and affordable source of primary health care for the community's most vulnerable residents, including those with chronic diseases, special needs and behavioral health issues.
