The Joppa Health Clinic begins to solve a decades-old problem in the historical neighborhood of Joppa, a place where bad air quality in the community has caused adverse health outcomes such as asthma and COPD. The addition of a health clinic, provided by Texas A&M in partnership with Downwinders At Risk, is a step towards getting convenient health care to the people who need it most. It began with the donation of a 40’ x 7’ “container clinic” and through our work with LPA Architects has grown into a wellness center that combines the medical clinic with a healing garden, a peach tree orchard, and an outdoor gathering space, while connecting the site to the neighboring community garden, Joppy Momma Farms.
