Goodwill and Sisters of Charity Health System Explore New Opportunity Center in Cleveland’s Central Neighborhood

Goodwill Industries of Greater Cleveland and East Central Ohio and the Sisters of Charity Health System (SCHS) are exploring an exciting new collaboration aimed at further uplifting Cleveland’s Central Neighborhood. The centerpiece of this potential partnership is a proposed Goodwill Opportunity Center, to be located on the former grounds of St. Vincent Charity Medical Center at 2351 East 22nd Street. The proposed Center will serve as a dynamic resource—not only for Goodwill’s mission-based programs—but also for additional community agencies, creating greater access to vital social services for the residents of Central and the broader Cleveland community.
