The CFC provides free primary medical care, mental health support services, prescriptions and dental care for low-income, working uninsured and underinsured adults and their families in the Charlottesville/Albemarle area.
During fiscal year 2015, the CFC treated 1,188 medial patients with 5,042 visits to our day and evening clinics, dispensed 30,852 prescriptions and provided dental care for 1,869 patients with 3,754 visits to day and evening dental clinics.
All services are provided by volunteers or the CFC's on-staff nurse practitioner or dentist. More than 500 community members, including over 150 physicians, nurse practitioners, pharmacists and dentists, volunteer at the CFC annually. Last year, our volunteers donated more than 12,600 hours of service to the CFC.
Our mission at the Charlottesville Free Clinic is...
To provide a volunteer community health support system that offers high-quality health care to the working uninsured population, which would otherwise have no access to care;
To provide practical experience for current and future health care professionals;
and
To hasten, through education and advocacy, the creation of a comprehensive policy for access to health care.
