Friend Family Health Center

Designed by Moody Nolan and built by construction firm Powers and Sons, Friend Health wanted to establish a project that serves medically underserved areas within Chicago’s neighborhoods, particularly in the city’s South Side area.

The resulting Friend Family Health Center in the Woodlawn neighborhood is certified as a Federally Qualified Health Center that provides low-cost services to residents in need, regardless of insurance, financial status, or immigration status.

The center offers a full-service pharmacy, a locally owned healthy cafe, group classrooms, obstetrics + gynecology services, family medicine, pediatrics, and behavioral health. Plus, a mural on the exterior of the facility, designed by Rahmaan Statick Barnes, celebrates the history and diversity of the Woodlawn community.
