We’re so thankful to the Greater Cabarrus Foundation for featuring the Community Free Clinic in their recent spotlight story!

For over 30 years, our mission has been simple but powerful - to care for the health of uninsured in Cabarrus County with compassion, respect, and quality care. Every patient matters, and every visit is an opportunity to build a healthier community together.

We’re proud to be part of a county where neighbors, nonprofits, and local partners step up every day to support one another. With your continued support, we can keep helping our patients get well and stay well.

“If the Clinic hadn’t been here to help me, I think I would be dead.”

Stories like this remind us why the Community Free Clinic exists. We’re not an urgent care, but for patients who are sick and have nowhere else to turn, we’re often the only place they can seek help without fear of crippling medical bills for seeing a physician, getting tests, and then treatment for illnesses.

For patients with complex medical needs, we work closely with specialists at Atrium Health and Novant Health, other medical providers, and nonprofit partners to ensure they get the care they need to heal—and more importantly, to live fully.

💙 Healthcare when you need it most — no matter your circumstances!

At the Community Free Clinic, we understand that life changes — jobs, income, and insurance can shift in ways you never expect. That’s why you can always come to us for care if your circumstances meet our guidelines (resident of Cabarrus County, uninsured, and earn less than 300% of the Federal Poverty Level).

Take Maria (name changed for privacy) for example: three years ago, she earned just above our income threshold and couldn’t qualify for free care. Recently, she returned to the Clinic because she’s now underemployed — and we were here to provide the support she and her children need.

We’re here for adults and children, helping with appointments,lab work, health coaching, and more — every step of the way.

Your health can’t wait — and neither should you. 💚

How is the Community Free Clinic different?

A diabetic patient came for a follow-up appointment yesterday, and shared that she was having other issues. Because our volunteer gastroenterologist was on site, she was able to be seen and received a referral for a test. We also were able to call our volunteer ophthalmologist Dr. Harper and he was able to see her a few hours later.

Within the span of a few hours, we were able to support this patient with different medical needs in one day. And our patient felt comfortable telling us her concerns because she knew she wasn't going to receive a bill that she couldn't pay.

Supporting this Clinic allows us to get people healthy so they are able to continue to live fully. It's good for our neighbors, and keeps our community economically and socially healthy.
