A new “front door” to health care opens to those experiencing homelessness.

The Mobile Health program, launched in 2023, addresses the need to improve health equity and access to care by delivering culturally responsive, trauma-informed and patient-centered care to the unhoused population in a mobile setting.

We’ve partnered with Medical Teams International (MTI) to move the front door of traditional health care, making it easier to offer services in a mobile setting. CCC now offers a range of expanded primary care which includes behavioral health care, improving access to services and housing resources, while MTI offers dental services.  

In early 2024, our two large, custom-made vans arrived, allowing our teams to directly provide wound care, physical exams, infectious disease screening, vaccinations, and medications.

CCC operates two teams, each staffed with a combination of roles including a Primary Care Provider (Physician Assistant, Nurse Practitioner, or Naturopathic Doctor), behavioral health specialist, and a community health outreach worker. 

Our teams bring equitable health care to the unhoused population in: 

  • Sanctioned camps
  • Unsanctioned camps
  • Congregate shelters
  • Motel shelters
  • Day centers

One Journey – Three Levels of Service
