Santa Clara County and other agencies unveiled a new expanded facility that aims to provide everything from medical assistance to social services to the area's unhoused residents.
On Friday, the Santa Clara Valley Healthcare system unveiled a huge expansion of its once modest clinic at the HomeFirst Shelter on Little Orchard Street.
Community leaders got to see a clinic that has nearly doubled to about 4,000 square feet and provides a wide array of services including medical, social services and mental health services for the homeless.
“This is like a dream come true. This is a game changer for our patients and for us,” said VHC Nurse Practitioner Mercy Egbujor.
