The 2024 California CareForce Sacramento Valley Free Health Care Clinic will be Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, Sept 13, 14, and 15. It will happen with support from community organizations, and professional and general volunteers. Over the two and a half days, hundreds of patients will receive medical, dental, and vision services free of charge.

The clinic is open to anyone needing services (people do not need to be Nevada County residents).

The clinic requires a multitude of volunteers. Professional medical volunteers are needed to complete the general medical, dental and vision exams and procedures. General volunteers are needed to help with setup, prep, food service and other odd jobs during the three days. See below for links to info about how to volunteer.
