Summary
Community Building Community (CBC) — a Midvale-originated 501(c)(3) clinic — told the council it is partnering with the University of Utah College of Nursing to increase Friday patient visits from four to 12 and deepen medical-student involvement in community care.
Representatives of Community Building Community (CBC) presented to the Midvale City Council on Dec. 2 about the clinic’s mission, student involvement and a new partnership with the University of Utah College of Nursing. Mauricio Agramont described the clinic’s history from a 1998 city initiative to a 2012 501(c)(3) that provides primary care access to uninsured working families.
Steve Bass, CBC Director of Operations, and student leaders Bella Waller and Cade Solich described student roles and training benefits. Agramont announced a College of Nursing partnership and said, "With this new partnership, the clinic will be able to increase patient visits from four to 12 on Friday’s," signaling an immediate expansion of clinical capacity. The presenters thanked the council for support and noted the program’s role in connecting medical education to community health needs.
