The Hub will provide “M Fairview Center for Community Health Equity” with additional space, expanding its efforts researching state-wide health disparities and promote new and existing health and wellness programs. Also located at the Wellness Hub will be Minnesota Community Care, offering primary care services like medical, dental, and vision care. They will also help residents find and apply for social services and act as a base for health education in the community. In addition to health care for local residents, a location for senior day programs is also planned. “Food is Medicine”; a group focused on helping the vulnerable find access to food programs and community education on the importance of nutrition also plans to make the old hospital a base of operations.
