The Poverello Center  

Since 2002 Poverello has offered a free adult primary care on Wednesday evenings on a first come first serve basis.

The clinic is staffed by volunteer physicians, nurses and chaplains for adults with no insurance. Poverello provides high quality care to the uninsured in the immediate community, reducing the charity care burden on our local health care providers. Poverello is located at our Sheridan Avenue office and is open on Wednesday evenings from 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm.
