Jax Care Connect

Jax Care Connect 🩺 Program of We Care Jacksonville, Inc.
🩺 Connecting uninsured residents of Duval County to no-cost and low-cost Primary Care.

JaxCareConnect is a joint collaboration created by the local nonprofit safety net of free and charitable clinics to assist uninsured adult Duval County residents in finding a primary care medical home. In addition to establishing primary care, we evaluate the whole person and explore other barriers to health care in order to support best possible health outcomes. Navigating health care can be an overwhelming process. The JaxCareConnect team is here to compassionately serve our neighbors and provide guidance about access to a health care provider. Our Patient Health Advocates work individually with each client to connect them to a primary care doctor, navigate community resources, and provide ongoing support along their health care journey. JaxCareConnect aims to better inform uninsured neighbors about their health care options so that all Duval County residents have access to comprehensive primary care—regardless of insurance status or ability to pay. JaxCareConnect was created in collaboration with Agape Community Health Center, Community Health Outreach, Muslim American Social Services, Mission House, Sulzbacher, Volunteers in Medicine and We Care Jacksonville.

After years as a banking executive, an unexpected layoff left Mrs. Johnson (name changed to protect patient confidentiality) unemployed, uninsured, and unable to afford the care and medications she relied on for her health.

She remembered meeting Jax Care Connect at a local health fair and made the call. Her Patient Health Advocate connected her to primary care at Agape Family Health, specialty care was then coordinated through WeCareJax, and we were able to schedule the screenings and treatments she urgently needed.

Without this support, her only option would have been the ER—for something as routine as a blood pressure refill and treatment for her knee. Instead, she received compassionate, preventive care and peace of mind during one of the most uncertain chapters of her life.

Our latest evaluation shows that 76% of patients avoid returning to the emergency department within a year of engaging with JaxCareConnect, saving the local hospital system and taxpayers an average of $7,155 per avoided visit (based on FY 24 claims data). That’s not just cost savings—it’s lives redirected toward preventive, consistent, and compassionate care.

Grateful for connection, collaboration, and community! 🤝✨

Our team had an incredible time networking at 2025 Cocktails & Conversations with United Way of Northeast Florida and the NextUp JAX Nonprofit & Young Professional Expo. These events were more than just mixers — they were opportunities to build partnerships, share our mission, and connect with others who are just as passionate about making a difference in healthcare and beyond.

Thank you to the organizers and everyone who stopped to chat with us! We’re energized for what’s ahead. 💚

We had a great time stepping out of the office and into the beautiful for our first quarterly team outing! From art-filled halls to genuine laughs and great conversations, it was the perfect way to reconnect and recharge.

A special highlight was exploring Westward Vibrations: Dance of the Exodusters - a powerful exhibition that sparked some meaningful dialogue and reflection.

Here’s to more moments like these with an incredible team! 💬💡
