W.T. and Louise J. Moran Health Center, John S. Dunn Building—Topping Out Celebration

Friends and supporters gathered at Reef restaurant on July 21, 2009 as we celebrated two important events in the life of our Midtown Health Center. First and foremost, the center was formally christened the W.T. and Louise J. Moran Health Center, John S. Dunn Building, in recognition of the two cornerstone gifts making the center possible. Second, attendees celebrated the topping-out of the three-level structure.

Among our honored guests at the mid-summer event was His Eminence Daniel Cardinal DiNardo, D.D., S.T.L., Archbishop of Galveston-Houston. The new, multi-faceted clinic, which will offer medical, dental and mental heath services, is scheduled to begin operating this winter. A collaboration of San José Clinic, Catholic Charities of our Archdiocese, and CHRISTUS Foundation, the new health center will dramatically improve health-care access for many thousands of uninsured and under served Houstonians. The center will also serve as the new base for our CHRISTUS Healthy Living Mobile Clinic.
