Community Health Free Clinic - Cedar Rapids

Community Health Free Clinic Website

A local Friend has said on 6/19:
Of course, the real work is just now beginning- the cleanup will need not just labor and materials, but they are talking about the public health issues involved. The folks who lost their homes are also the lower income folks in Cedar Rapids....this clinic will be a source for folks to get immunizations, and also help for people who are now pushed into our financial bracket, or b/c of flooding have related problems (asthma, need of counseling...etc) The local paper this morning called for more volunteers there. I also volunteer every week there and can also vouch for their effectiveness- but it took me reading the paper this morning to realize that was the place to recommend to you.”

A Quaker Friend wrote again on 6/23/08
Almost all of the funding and work is completely donated. All the doctors, nurses, pharmacists, everyone....the medicines are donated or gotten through different grants. It is not funded by the city or state gvt. . The clinic exists for uninsured and under-insured. The funding is extremely transparent.
