Capitol City Family Health Clinic (CCFHC) is anticipating their new facility to open on Catalpa Street in Donaldsonville this August. In the meantime, officials have planed a series of community events to raise awareness and inform residents of various services the clinic will offer.

Not only was there a health fair, but also residents who are seeking employment with a medical background were able to apply for job openings at the clinic.

There was a total of 85 people that applied for jobs at CCFHC, 22 people applied for jobs at the Louisiana Workforce Commission, and there was a few for HIV and STD testing at the Metro Health Mobile Unit.  

The vendors that participated were Wal-mart Vision, Capitol City Family Health Center’s nursing and dental staff, Louisiana Workforce Commission, and Capitol City Family Health Center’s Podiatrist Dr. Marvin Trotter.
