About St. Luke's Community House

St. Luke’s was founded in 1913 to serve the medical needs of women and children whose male relatives were incarcerated at the nearby state penitentiary. In 1920, St. Luke’s relocated to its present site and continued serving as a clinic until 1996, when state healthcare cuts forced the agency to terminate these services.

Since that time, St. Luke’s evolved and now functions as a social service agency offering a variety of programs including childcare, mobile meals, emergency food, home repairs, tax assistance, toy store, summer camp, and health assessments.
