Berkeley Free Clinic
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Berkeley Free Clinic is a nonprofit community clinic located in Berkeley, California, USA. It is operated as a worker-run collective by over a hundred volunteers. It has provided free medical and dental care since 1969. They also offer peer counseling services. In 2009, they faced severe budget cuts due to the fiscal crisis in the state of California.[1]
Two of the founders were local booksellers Moe Moskowitz and Fred Cody, of Moe's Books and Cody's Books.[2]
