Politics are polarized and social media is a hellscape. But communities can still come together around exceptional ideas like free clinics, and get a great deal accomplished in the process. In this session we will demonstrate how, through coordination with NAFC and VIM, we were able to overcome initial skepticism and open a new free clinic in Lander, WY. We will provide detailed information on performing a community assessment, gathering stakeholders, and meeting the regulatory, legal, and medical requirements to open a clinic. We will also discuss how our clinic has been received in the community and the excellent results we have achieved.
