      First Suspended to Reinstated Clinic - January 24, 2024

      Here are photos from our first clinic of the year on January 24, at Community Resources Council - Stout Community Center

      Many people made appointments ahead of time but many also just showed up as walk-ins.  We now require people to register ahead of clinics.
