National health care nonprofit to move headquarters to Tampa

CAN Community Health, a nonprofit dedicated to community medical care, will relocate its national headquarters from Sarasota to Tampa by the Fall of 2024.

The new headquarters will be located within the German American Club historic building, in Ybor, alongside its established medical clinic and will house its executives, senior and mid-level management, according to a statement.

“Since 1991, we’ve provided premier care through outreach, advocacy, education and research,” said president and chief executive officer Dr. Rishi Patel, in the statement. “We are excited to make Tampa Bay our new home for our headquarters. It is a pivotal move for our organization and a game changer for all our patients.”

Following its relocation to Tampa, CAN says it will continue to expand its roots in Sarasota and grow its mission by housing the Susan Terry Foundation within its Sarasota Medical Center, off 12th and Tuttle Avenue.
