PHILADELPHIA, PA - On August 24 and August 25, 2024, The Philadelphia Sheriff's Office and Remote Area Medical held a free two-day pop-up clinic for free medical, dental, and vision care for those in need, with no insurance and no ID required.
"In 2022, our community came together incredibly to ensure that everyone had access to essential healthcare services, and I’m proud to say that the Philadelphia Sheriff’s Office is doing it again. This clinic is about more than just healthcare; it’s about compassion, unity, and the shared commitment to the well-being of every resident. This is part of our community outreach strategy to identify opportunities to support Philadelphia residents,” stated, Sheriff Rochelle Bilal.
“We are proud to provide support for this important community event hosted by the Philadelphia Sheriff’s Office. Healthcare is important for every resident of Philadelphia. At this event residents can receive free care, which can improve well-being and morale,” said State Senator Sharif Street.
"Remote Area Medical is excited for the opportunity to be invited back to Philadelphia to serve free, quality healthcare to those in need. We look forward to working alongside the Philadelphia Sheriff's Office, DentMed Inc., and all the volunteers to continue to provide care in this community," said Clinic Coordinator Brad Hutchins.
