Health care can be hard to get to if you are experiencing homelessness, don’t have stable housing, or don’t have money. We offer easy-to-access health care at several places in the Seacoast. We bring medical and social work services to convenient places like shelters, soup kitchens and community organizations.
The button below takes you to our usual schedule, but it is always a good idea to check for the latest info by calling (603) 766-9220 or viewing our calendar.
We also offer phone and video visits. Please call (603) 766-9220 if you have health care questions or need medication refills.
Our doors are open for anyone who faces barriers to accessing health care, such as:
- having a temporary or transitional living situation
- being unsheltered
- seasonal workers
- being anxious in traditional medical settings
- other barriers
No appointments needed. Simply check out our schedule and come on by!
If you have insurance, we’ll take it: Medicaid (NH and Maine), Medicare and most other insurance plans.
If you are uninsured, no problem! We’ll help you get insurance if possible. If not, charges are based on your ability to pay.
