This milestone marks the continuation of a shared commitment to expanding access to quality, community-centered healthcare in the Metro East region.

The project also represented the first new housing development in Cahokia Heights in more than 24 years.
Following the successful completion of Vivian’s Village Phase I, IMPACT Strategies is once again serving as Construction Manager for the project. The new phase will provide affordable housing in Cahokia Heights, including 1 duplex (2 units), 3 quadplex (12 units), 14 single family homes & 2 townhomes (8 units).
“IMPACT Strategies is honored to continue our long-standing partnership with SIHF Healthcare,” said Mark Hinrichs, President of IMPACT Strategies. “Our team’s extensive affordable housing experience allows us to help bring SIHF’s vision to life—creating spaces that make a lasting difference in the communities they serve.”
This phase represents the next step in a multi-phase development supporting both health and community revitalization in the Metro East region. Completion is expected Fall 2026.
