Agency: GBR Community Clinic

The Community Clinic is striving to bring quality healthcare to the low-income uninsured working who need it, when they need it…
The Greater Baton Rouge Community Clinic is a network of medical and dental professionals who volunteer their time and resources to provide temporary healthcare to the uninsured, working poor who live in the nine-parish Greater Baton Rouge Area.  The Community Clinic is a non-profit organization that connects the needy with healthcare providers in an effort to assure quality healthcare to working-class people between the ages of 18 and 65 since they do not qualify or receive state, federal or any other healthcare assistance.  Funding for the Greater Baton Rouge Community Clinic is acquired through grants and donations from individuals and organizations, and the Community Clinic has a myriad of volunteers (in addition to the healthcare providers) who donate their time.
