In 1834, when Most Holy Trinity Catholic Church transformed its new church building

into a medical facility for victims of Detroit’s cholera epidemic, it began a long tradition of tending to the medical needs of southwest Detroit’s poor. Consecration of Detroit’s first English-speaking church was delayed so that the building could be used as a hospital for victims of the deadly disease. One hundred years later, in 1950, Pastor Father Clement Kern had a mission, meeting the needs of the Corktown neighborhood residents who were the poorest of the poor. Because many were new immigrants in need of basic medical care, he established a free clinic, naming it in honor of Mother Frances Cabrini, the patron saint of immigrants. Today, a statue of St. Frances Cabrini stands in the waiting room of the Most Holy Trinity’s Cabrini Clinic. Volunteer doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and other health professionals provide primary health care to the uninsured poor families who come to the clinic for help. Resident physicians and students from local universities receive clinical training and learn from the patients what it is to be poor, sick and uninsured in Detroit.

Cabrini Clinic provides a holistic approach toward meeting the

primary health care needs of economically disadvantaged residents of southwest Detroit and beyond. We serve those who fall through the medical-social safety net and help them connect with basic resources. We offer education, prevention, and treatment without charge, but with deep compassion and respect for the people we serve and their needs.
