Holy Cross Hospital recently started renovations on the facility that will be transformed into the new Dorothy Mangurian Comprehensive Women’s Center at Holy Cross Healthplex, slated to open this fall.

Joined by community leaders and more than 50 of their 75 “Girlfriends,” women in the community who each pledged $5,000 as lifelong members of the Dorothy Mangurian Comprehensive Women’s Center, Holy Cross recently held a demolition event to celebrate the kick off of Phase I renovations to the building. Plans for the entire space include a dedicated entrance, a welcome area, education and community rooms, a cuisine center, a chapel, counseling rooms, a women’s boutique, gift shop, doctors’ offices, and a computer and library research center.
