The Community Health Clinic (CHC), a nonprofit healthcare facility that focuses on research and specialized care for individuals with rare genetic conditions, has begun construction on a new 15,000 square-foot facility on ten acres of land in North Shipshewana, Indiana.
The new building will allow the CHC to continue patient care, support program development, and improve the quality of life for a growing population of families affected by rare disorders. It will include an increased number of patient care rooms, workplaces for visiting clinicians, meeting spaces, and a large community room for education and related family gatherings.
Why a New Building?
Since the opening of the Community Health Clinic, we have been careful stewards of community resources, doing our work in a modest rented space, less than 3,500 square feet in the basement of a small medical building in Topeka, Indiana.
THE NEW BUILDING WILL ALLOW THE CHC TO:
Improve the quality of life for families affected by rare disorders
Help to decrease the time from diagnosis to treatment
Help advance cures with the hope that one day, all children may grow up to enjoy healthy, happy, and productive lives
