SHH 25th Anniversary!
November 4, 2024
Today we are beyond proud to celebrate 25 Years of Hope, Healthcare, Empowerment, Education and Advocacy! We would like to thank the communities that we serve and everyone that has contributed to the growth of St. Hope Healthcare throughout the years!
Here are a few fun facts about the making of St. Hope Healthcare throughout the years:
- We first began as a transportation service that prioritized getting clients to their appointments. Since then, we have grown into an innovative comprehensive federally-qualified Health Center with a variety of healthcare services, with transportation being at the root of it all.
- SHH began offering medical care in 2002 by way of a medical mobile unit! The service was accessible and in high demand which helped our organization grow rapidly. The high demand did however cause the mobile unit to breakdown frequently. This was for the greater good though, because it led to opening our first medical site in Conroe, Texas!
- The average age for employees in 2024 is around 39 years old, compared to 28 years old back in 2020. Nearly 1/3 of our staff are legacy employees! Building trust and community not only extends to our patients, but also to our employees. Thank you to our legacy employees that have been instrumental to SHH's success over the years!
- At the heart of our organization is HIV Care! Over the years we have become the 2nd largest HIV Care Provider in Houston for a reason! Our mission then still remains the same now, to provide an environment where people feel valued, empowered and cared for. In 2009, we expanded our services to OBGYN Care, which further lead us to becoming a Federally Qualified Health Center with full service medical care!
- St. Hope Healthcare broke records with BET's Emmy-winning "Rap It Up" campaign, providing HIV testing to over 800 individuals in one day at Prairie View A&M and sparking meaningful change across historically black colleges and universities, including Grambling University, Langston University, and Southern University!
- We honor the legacy of our esteemed board member, Willie Sylvester, who played a pivotal role in securing a state-of-the-art medical mobile unit for St. Hope through his connections with Brentwood Church, bringing free health screenings to low-income families in rural communities.
