Multi-Access Center

at Morgan's Wonderland

San Antonio, Texas (Bexar County)

Unique 165,000 SF one-stop medical, behavioral, and social services facility working to eliminate the fragmented and uncoordinated health/social services care system that challenges special needs individuals.

The Project

The Morgan Wonderland Multi-Access Center (MAC) is a 165,000 SF one-stop services center working to improve the disjointed health and social services care available to special-needs individuals. Over 40 non- and for-profit community providers will join together under one roof to provide a unique service delivery model that is comprehensive, complementary, and synergistic in order to achieve better outcomes and reduce costs.


Specially-trained staff, called Navigators, and a purpose-built electronic platform are at the heart of this new care model, coordinating the assistance each individual and their family needs.


FQHC CommuniCare will provide primary medical services tailored to special-needs individuals. Other medical services not offered elsewhere also will be available, including sedated dental procedures, optometric exams, audiological testing, and blood-drawing services. Therapy services, including physical, occupational, speech, recreational, massage, behavioral and others, round out this comprehensive approach to health care.


Fostering independence will be a key focus of the MAC, with Job Training and Placement Assistance targeting employment for 2,000 special-needs teens and adults annually. Navigators will also offer support to find suitable group or other residential housing. Additional non-medical services include Dietary and Nutritional Education and Social, Legal, and Peer Support.
