Renovating Denver’s Oldest Community Health Center

V-Cap provided a $5 million loan to Denver Health to support the renovation of their Gipson Eastside Family Health Clinic. The Eastside Clinic is the oldest community health center west of the Mississippi River and one of nine centers in Denver Health’s network. Nearly 60% of the families it serves live below the poverty line and rely on the clinic for a range of care, including physical therapy, pediatric care, obstetric care, and pharmacy needs. With V-Cap’s support, the Eastside Clinic received substantial  renovations for the first time in more than 50 years, including modern examination and procedure rooms, restrooms, lighting and infrastructure upgrades.
