Depending on the
nature and scope of the disaster, the public may not be able to come to a Point
of Dispensing Clinic to receive their medications.
This is an innovative
process to provide these medications in a rapid and efficient manner.
We will deliver the "medications" to approximately 2800 homes using many staff and volunteers.

We had a large group of volunteers cancel
today, so we are in a bit of a pinch. Though, this is an opportunity to reach
out to our volunteer partners and get to know each other. Thanks so much for
all you do!
