FOX 11's good nite LA spotlights Saban Community Clinic's new Temple Family Health Center. OWC secured coverage on FOX 11 for Saban Community Clinic's new Temple Family Health Center, located in Los Angeles' Echo Park neighborhood. The new health center, located at 2121 W. Temple St. on the Children's Institute's Otis Booth Campus, is Saban Community Clinic's first healthcare location serving the Echo Park community and its seventh health center in Los Angeles. The co-location partnership with Children's Institute puts Saban's healthcare services within a campus that serves thousands of children and families each year through programs including early childhood education, adult and child therapy, parenting support and care coordination, offering a closer look at a unique approach that will expand access to a full spectrum of family services. Local human service nonprofits are seeing demand for services rise as state and federal budget cuts strain already limited resources. Through its partnership with Children's Institute, Saban is making it easier for families to get the care they need. At a time when its communities are feeling the impact of funding cuts and rising costs, partnerships like these help keep essential services within reach and trusted organizations there for the people who rely on them. The Temple Family Health Center will initially focus on care for children, with comprehensive family healthcare services coming soon. Saban provides compassionate, high-quality healthcare regardless of a patient's ability to pay.
