Volunteer Month Spotlight -- St. Joseph's Neighborhood Center


St. Joseph's Neighborhood Center provides health care and counseling to the uninsured and under-insured, primarily through volunteer doctors, nurses, counselors and other medical professionals. When I was introduced to the center in 1999, I was immediately impressed by the passion and camaraderie of the staff and volunteers. Their spirit was infectious, drawing me and others in. I stay involved, in part, because I have health care choices and it stops me cold that others do not. I have the luxury of regular dental check ups and physicals. For too many people, seeking medical care means going without something else. It shouldn't be that way.

If you would like to be involved in St. Joseph's Neighborhood Center, give me a call.
