The St. Vincent Charity Health Campus will encompass property owned by the Sisters of Charity at East 22nd Street and serve as a catalyst for revitalization in the surrounding area.

As announced in June 2021, MASS Design Group, a global design collective dedicated to delivering architecture that promotes justice and human dignity, has been engaged by the Sisters of Charity Foundation of Cleveland to create a Health Campus that provides care for the whole person. In the Central Neighborhood, the Health Campus will build on the Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine’s 170-year legacy of healing by bringing new services to the community that address the social determinants of health.

A Health Campus is designed to purposefully attract diverse community partners who will co-locate services on one campus to complement traditional health care services and collectively improve health outcomes of the people served.

The design of this Health Campus will build out the changing footprint of St. Vincent Charity Medical Center, which was once exclusively an acute care hospital, into a campus promoting holistic wellness.
It will be designed to address health disparities and improve health outcomes by offering additional services beyond health care to address the Social Determinants of Health.
The Health Campus will be located on property owned by the Sisters of Charity at East 22nd Street and serve as a catalyst for economic revitalization in the surrounding area.

Co-created with and by Central and larger Cleveland community
