Black Men’s Health Clinic
A New Kind of Clinic
CommUnityCare is excited to announce it is providing primary care medical services at Austin’s recently established Black Men’s Health Clinic (BMHC). Starting November 8, 2022, BMHC will be open Tuesdays from 9AM-6PM
The Black Men’s Health Clinic is the first of its kind to address the longtime healthcare gap for men of color. Our partnership with this amazing clinic is determined to address the longtime healthcare gap for men of color. Our joint purpose is longevity of life and trusted health information.
“There are many reasons men of color do not access the health care system including socioeconomic status or lack of information. Another major barrier in accessing care for black men is rooted in historic medical mistrust,” said the founder of the Black Men’s Health Clinic, Larry Wallace, Sr. “In order to help overcome this mistrust and to address the health inequities men of color face, I recognized that a dedicated and safe environment for men of color was needed – this is why I established the Black Men’s Health Clinic with strong support from community partners and stakeholders, including CommUnityCare.”
Medical Services
In addition to providing primary medical care at the Black Men’s Health Clinic, CommUnityCare will coordinate care and referrals to other services and has a full-time community health worker.
