Bringing Community Together to Improve Access to Healthcare

Named "One of the Best Nonprofits" by Spur Local, Culmore Clinic is a nonprofit healthcare clinic offering free, compassionate,culturally-sensitive medical care, counseling, and specialty referrals to uninsured adults in the Falls Church, VA area.

 

The Need

Access to healthcare continues to be a crisis. Over half of Bailey’s Crossroads residents are uninsured. Barriers to accessing medical care are legion. Affordability, language, and documentation are just a few examples. Dedicated individuals and congregations thought something should be done. In 2007, they opened Culmore Clinic.
