About this Opportunity

The FIMRC clinic in San Felipe, Alajuelita was established in January of 2005 and is just a short walk to the underserved communities of Jasmin ("Jasmine") and Los Pinos ("The Pines"). The centrally located clinic serves as a FIMRC base within the community for well-child and acute care visits. The majority of the population seen at our clinic, comprised largely of women and children, is medically uninsured and in need of medical and psychological care.

Volunteers work alongside our clinic team during daily operations, assist with innovative public health and psychological initiatives, as well as work with our local partner soup kitchen.
