New 54,000-SF HQ for People’s Community Clinic Austin

AUSTIN – People’s Community Clinic (PCC) will move into a new 54,000-sf headquarters in northeast Austin, with help from a $10 million grant from the St. David’s Foundation.

The $16 million project will give the group that serves at-risk communities a second location since it will also keep its downtown facility open.

The new headquarters was formerly home of the Texas Real Estate Commission and was purchased in fall 2013.

The new facility was necessary because the group’s patient population is moving east, according to Regina Rogoff, CEO of PCC. She said only 15 percent of its patients live within two miles of the downtown headquarters, but that number will jump to 50 percent once the move is complete.

Approximately 125 employees in a variety of health care disciplines will be hired for the new center.

The donation is the largest grant ever from St. David’s Foundation, which began providing funding to PCC in 1996.
