For many people health issues are a major factor in making them vulnerable to homelessness. COI provides a variety of low- and no-cost medical and dental clinics. There are various eligibility requirements depending on the clinic or service, but they are available to people from Linn, Benton and Lincoln counties, not just residents of COI shelters.
COI depends on the generosity of local health professionals who volunteer their time to make our medical and dental clinics possible. Additionally, non-licensed volunteers and interns play a key role in our ability to serve others in our community. Without them, we would not be where we are today and our capacity to serve would be nowhere near as great. We are always looking for more volunteers, and thank you for taking the time to fill out an application.
