ABOUT US

Owners John and Jennifer Garrett launched the „rst edition of Community Impact Newspaper in 2005 with three full-time employees covering Round Rock and P‘ugerville, Texas. Now in 2022, CI is still locally owned. We have expanded to include hundreds of employees, our own software platform and printing facility, and over 40 hyperlocal editions across three states with circulation to more than 2.8 million residential mailboxes.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH

FROM DEEDA: As our population grows, so does our need for health care. In this month’s front-page story, we take a closer look at the hospital construction and expansion projects across the Austin metro area that are rising up to meet the demand. The story written by Editor Claire Shoop is part of our annual Health Care Edition, a special section within this monthly publication. Inside (see Pages 20-47), you’ll „nd hospital listings, a Senior Living Guide and medical updates on local and nationwide issues including the baby formula shortage, call for blood donors and push for more mental health services. At Community Impact Newspaper , we know health and wellness are a priority for our readers, so we welcome any feedback you may have that we can apply to next year’s coverage. Thank you for reading!
