Our Partners
ENCompass volunteers visit various sites across Columbus. There, these volunteers conduct consultations. Clients are surveyed for their social needs, and volunteers create a packet of resources in Columbus that can address these needs.
GETHSEMANE
Since April 2015, ENCompass has offered its services at Gethsemane Lutheran Church Food Pantry, which serves as our primary social site. Formed as a partnership between the Clintonville-Beechwold Resource Center (CRC) and Gethsemane Lutheran Church, the pantry sets out to better reach the local Broadmeadows Boulevard and Salem Village communities. Gethsemane Food Pantry supplies fresh produce, meals, and a week’s worth of supplies from 6:00pm-8:00pm on Wednesdays and 11:00am-1:00pm on Saturdays.
OSU TOTAL HEALTH & WELLNESS AT UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL EAST
Total Health & Wellness (TH&W) is a primary care clinic operating out of OSU's University Hospital East. Led by nurse practitioners, the clinic offers comprehensive primary care to the medically under-served in Columbus. ENCompass began its partnership with TH&W, the primary clinical site, in May 2015. Each day, TH&W is committed to providing quality healthcare, with programs ranging from mental health management to lifestyle improvements. Volunteers have built relationships with the staff on board, including the social workers and pharmacists. ENCompass volunteers help patients in the waiting room find social resources while they are waiting to see their primary care provider.

Equipped with both Spanish-speaking and Non Spanish-speaking doctors and staff, La Clinica Latina provides free medical services, tests, and medications to individuals in the Columbus area.
