Provider of supportive services for vulnerable people in crisis, including veterans, migrants, families, and children Endeavors in Austin, Texas, provides personalized medical services and programs to people in crisis. Its newly updated Veteran Wellness Center and Steven A. Cohen Military Family Clinic in San Antonio offers an integrated space for mental healthcare services, including mental healthcare and therapy, emergency services , life skills, wellness events, and support groups.

Project goals for the renovation and addition project included developing a prototype design for future wellness centers, consolidating Endeavors’ satellite offices, and creating a community center for in-house veteran events.

Led by RVK Architecture (San Antonio, Texas) the project features a two-story addition and renovations to an existing building. The main entrance lobby serves as a segue to the building’s wellness center; 2,000-square-foot community center; and second-story offices, which include lease space for doctors and massage therapists. A family clinic, located on the building’s east end, features a separate entrance and connects to the community center. The clinic houses a mix of exam rooms, meeting space, and offices.

Interior finishes, from light woods to reindeer moss preserved, reference natural tones and help establish a tranquil environment throughout the building.
