Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Venice Family Clinic

  • 2 people are interested

The Venice Family Clinic is a key service provider for the disenfranchised in Los Angeles County -- since 1970. Expanding our services to include necessary legal services will make a critical difference in some of our patients lives.We are exploring options in terms of how to make legal services more accessible to our patient.

VFC is recruiting 2 attorneys for a pilot program: one screening attorney and one to take cases. These attorneys would work closely with VFC staff to better understand our patients’ needs and the clinic’s capacity for this type of program. This is a brand new opportunity and would be great for anyone that is interested in really taking ownership of a project with VFC. Full recruitment (for attorneys as well as patients) would start after we have lessons learned from our pilot.

How to Get Involved: Please contact Cassie Roque, Volunteer Services Manager, at VFCvolunteer@mednet.ucla.edu for more info.

About Venice Family Clinic

Location:

2509 Pico Blvd, VENICE, CA 90291, US

Mission Statement

To improve the health of people and communities through accessible, quality care.

Description

Over the past 50 years, Venice Family Clinic’s mission of providing quality primary health care to people in need hasn’t changed, but its scope has broadened dramatically. Today, the Clinic has about 400 staff members and more than 1,300 volunteers who serve 28,000 patients, without regard for their ability to pay or immigration status. Its programs have expanded beyond primary medical care to include dental, vision, behavioral health, exercise classes, health education, early childhood development - and street medicine for people experiencing homelessness, to ensure even the most vulnerable of its neighbors get the medical care they deserve.

Our Volunteer Services Department strives to recruit and connect the best volunteers possible with almost every department within the clinic. We work to provide support to the volunteers as well as the clinic teams whom they help. Every year, we work with over 1400 volunteers, including approximately 500 provider volunteers. Our department helps with recruiting, training, scheduling, and general upkeep of all volunteers.
