Thank you for your interest in volunteering at People’s Community Clinic.
The clinic’s history is a reflection of our volunteer program. It was founded as People’s Free Clinic in 1970 in the basement of the Congregational Church on Guadalupe Street across from the UT campus, by a handful of visionary volunteer doctors and nurses. Since the beginning volunteers have been the foundation of our organization. It is important that we offer impactful opportunities for volunteers to share their time and talents.
Please see our list of volunteer opportunities below.
