Building Stronger Communities

The Washington University Medical Center Redevelopment Corporation (WUMCRC) is a partnership between BJC HealthCare and the Washington University School of Medicine. It’s mission is to improve the quality of life for the neighborhoods surrounding the medical campus.

In order to achieve this goal in Forest Park Southeast and the Central West End, WUMCRC has invested millions of dollars toward regenerating these regions for private investment in businesses and real estate. It also seeks to enhance human and social service opportunities by improving the level of physical and personal security.
