Three dynamic criteria:

  • Meets the medical needs of low income, uninsured clients at a greatly reduced rate because of the dedicated work of our medical volunteers.
  • Activates more than 100 volunteers on a quarterly basis who are seeking a rewarding, worthwhile experience.
  • Eases the burden on county hospitals and taxpayers by averting costly emergency care. 

Our patients are 50% Caucasian, and 47% minorities, with 48% being female. Many patients are in their mid 50s to early 60s. They have primarily worked their entire adult lives but have been downsized or retired without insurance.
