Keeping Up - What's New

Call for AmeriCares Volunteers

AmeriCares Free Clinic - Volunteer Physicians Needed
The AmeriCares Free Clinics rely on volunteers to provide free, high-quality health care to our uninsured community members.  Physician volunteers are needed for all clinic sites located in Bridgeport, Norwalk, Danbury and Stamford, all of which provide services to nearby towns.  You can volunteer as little as once a month or as often as once a week. Just a few hours of your time can help someone who doesn't have health insurance.
