Mazzoni Center has a new home for the LGBTQ community

Project turned an office building into a new healthcare center


After years of shuffling patients between various healthcare facilities scattered throughout Philadelphia, the Mazzoni Center has a new home base, according to the Curbed Philadelphia website.

The Mazzoni Center is the only healthcare provider in the area that specifically targets LGBTQ needs. But it’s had many homes over its nearly 40-year-long history, meaning Mazzoni was a “center” in name only.

“In general, I think what we wanted with this new space was to create a feeling of a place that would feel very welcoming and professional,” said Mazzoni’s former communications manager Elisabeth Flynn.

The new site has been transformed from a two-story building into a four-story, 45,000-square-foot comprehensive healthcare facility with a mix of integrated services, from health care to legal services to counseling.
