St. Ann Clinic, which is located at St. Ann Parish, 1440 Locust St., in Terre Haute, provides primary health care service and referrals to low-income individuals and families who live at the national poverty level, do not have a private physician and do not have medical insurance, Medicaid or Medicare.

The clinic is staffed by health care professionals who volunteer their time to the ministry. Area hospitals, medical laboratories, medical testing facilities and colleges also contribute time and services.

The clinic collaborates with pharmaceutical companies to help patients obtain physician-prescribed medications.
