The Free Clinic of Pierce and St. Croix Counties serves as a safety net to our friends, families and neighbors living one unexpected expense away from not being able to afford insurance premiums, co-pays or deductibles. It is a place to turn for primary medical care, medications, educational information and connections to other resources, free of charge. 
Community support and collaborations are essential to the success of the Free Clinic. From the beginning in 2007, River Falls Area Hospital, part of Allina Health, has stepped forward as a collaborating partner. In addition to providing the human resource functions for three part-time staff, they also fund and provide medical imaging and laboratory diagnostics needed for the patients served. 
The Free Clinic of Pierce and St. Croix Counties and River Falls Area Hospital, part of Allina Health, have a shared value to provide access to health care to an under-served population. The partnership is an outstanding example of working together to keep our communities healthy and thriving.
