Andrew Grimm remembers the blustery day in December 2020 that the Stout Street Clinic opened to more than 50 shivering Venezuelans standing in their line. The migrants weren’t necessarily looking for healthcare but for a place to get warm. “They had been put on a bus in Texas, and they were in T-shirts, no coats, not the right shoes, who had been on a really long journey just looking for someplace to get warm,” recalled the health center executive. Grimm said that gave birth to a migrant welcoming center in the clinic that day.
