Saint Mary’s Hospital, a Regional Health Ministry of Trinity Health of New England, has received approval from the State Office of Health Strategy to transition its outpatient behavioral health clinic to Wheeler Clinic, which is establishing a new Family Health & Wellness Center in Waterbury.

Wheeler’s Christiane Pimentel, senior health outreach coordinator, is part of an Access Health CT social media campaign focused on this observance (August 4-10, 2019) and the role that community health centers play in cities and towns across the country.

Wheeler's Health & Wellness Center team will have eight walk-in clinics available to assist with SNAP, SAGA, TANF, HUSKY and Access Healthcare.

For more than five decades, the central Connecticut community has supported Wheeler Clinic in its mission to serve residents in need. Much of that support has come from the region’s manufacturing sector, which includes several notable local wire and spring firms.

Chris Popilowski, senior recruiter, Wheeler Foster Care Programs, is featured in an Exvadio Network podcast about the need for foster families for children and youth in Connecticut.
