About Programs/Services

Current Programs & Services

The Free Clinics offers nine regular clinics, access to specialty care, pharmaceutical support, and case management.  Our goal is to bridge gaps in healthcare, not to be someone’s primary care home.  We provide a user-friendly place for people who would otherwise fall through the cracks.
