Rock River Community Clinic (RRCC) recently completed their $2 million capital campaign
after just over a year of fundraising efforts.
The Wisconsin State Building Commission recently awarded RRCC $330,000 through the Non-
State Grant Program, helping reach the finish line.
The 2025-2026 “Moving Upstream” Campaign consisted of:
● Opening a new integrated medical, dental & behavioral client site in the first floor of the
Fort HealthCare Johnson Creek clinic to expand and integrate patient care services
● Renovating the existing medical clinic in Whitewater to expand into the empty lower suite
for administrative and business offices, creating additional space to support the
continued growth of medical services.
● Relocating and renovating the Watertown medical clinic to the empty Medical Clinic
building on the Watertown Regional Medical Center campus
“Because of this incredible support, we’ll be able to serve more patients while reducing barriers
to accessing care,” said Dr. Olivia Nichols, CEO/Executive Director of Rock River Community
Clinic. “Medical, dental, and behavioral health services will operate together in our new
Johnson Creek clinic, a milestone made possible by this campaign and the generosity of our
community.”
By integrating patient services, RRCC will minimize overhead costs and maximize patient
access to affordable services. By late summer, RRCC plans to transform the Watertown clinic
into an outpatient behavioral health center. With these expansions, RRCC projects to serve
6,800 patients annually by 2028, totaling an estimated 23,000 visits.

provide quality, comprehensive health care for all.
