Fourth Street Clinic: Compassionate Care for Salt Lake City's Homeless

The Fourth Street Clinic is more than just a health center, it's a place of compassion and hope for those who are homeless and in need of medical and emotional care.
Imagine facing the harsh realities of homelessness in Salt Lake City and finding a sanctuary that offers not just medical care but genuine compassion. That's what the Fourth Street Clinic is all about. In this episode of 'Odyssey House Journals', host Randall Carlisle sits down with Laurel Ingham, the Development Director of the clinic, to uncover the heart and soul behind their mission.
Laurel, who once walked through the clinic doors as a patient herself, now dedicates her life to helping others find hope and healing. She shares how the clinic's integrated care model provides not only medical attention but also dental services and emotional support, often overlooked necessities for the homeless. Each year, the clinic holds a candlelight vigil to honor those who have passed away, a solemn reminder of the ongoing struggles faced by this vulnerable population.
Despite numerous challenges, the Fourth Street Clinic remains a steadfast pillar in the community, continually expanding its services to reach even more people in need. From plans for mobile clinics to tackling severe mental health issues, Laurel's story is one of resilience and unwavering dedication. Tune in to hear about the real impact being made and the lives being transformed every day at the Fourth Street Clinic.
