of minnesota
in the house of representatives
Ms. OMAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Community- University Health Care Center (CUHCC) as it breaks ground on a new facility and celebrates 60 years of service to South Minneapolis.
and the only one in the state connected to an academic health center. Each year, CUHCC serves more than 12,000 patients through over 54,000 visits. They provide whole-person care that looks at both medical needs and the real challenges people face, including income, access, and other barriers to staying healthy. CUHCC has built strong trust in the community by making care accessible and respectful for everyone.
CUHCC is also a leader in training future healthcare workers. Nearly 200 students and residents learn there each year across many fields. This helps grow a workforce that understands the needs of the community. As the need for care continues to grow, CUHCC is expanding. The new building will be twice the size of the original space and will include services like a pharmacy, imaging, and physical therapy in one place. This will make it easier for patients to get the care they need. The new facility will also allow CUHCC to serve 6,000 more patients while continuing to provide compassionate, trauma-informed care.
