“Our Charity Clinic focuses on building a healthier community by serving the needs of our uninsured neighbors, who otherwise would not have access to quality healthcare. We thank all of our Women Empowering Women sponsors and supporters who allow us to heal our neighbors and to Dr. Adrienne Blessing and Dr. Emily Liska for their vision and creativity,” shared Missy Herndon, President and CEO of Interfaith Community Clinic.
Proceeds from the Women Empowering Women Luncheon benefit Interfaith Community Clinic, the only charity clinic serving all of Montgomery County. The Community Clinic opened its doors in 1996 to meet the medical needs of the uninsured population. As the needs of the community have grown, so have the services offered at the clinic. Today, the clinic continues to provide quality basic medical and dental care, counseling and patient services to individuals in need. A volunteer staff of licensed physicians, nurses, medical providers, dentists, dental assistants, dental hygienists, as well as translators and support personnel work together to provide patient care. Programs are provided free of charge and are funded by the generous financial support of grants, faith-based organizations, businesses, civic groups, and individuals.
