Siloam Family Health Center

In 1991, a group of local church members in Nashville decided to become part of the solution to our broken health care system by starting a volunteer-driven clinic to care for the uninsured and underserved that would address not just the symptoms, but also the root causes of poor health. Thus Siloam Family Health Center was born. Siloam’s mission is to share the love of Christ by serving those in need through health care. Siloam offers whole-person health care, addressing the physical, emotional, spiritual and social determinants of health. The agency’s goals/outcomes for the year include: Conduct health literacy trainings with 400 new refugees through the Refugee Health Promotion initiative. At least 75% of new patients will be screened for alcohol and drug use using the Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) tool.
