Providing basic health care services, the mobile Wound Clinic has grown into a philosophy where regardless of a person's legal status, economic condition, political, religious or sexual orientation, cultural background or gender, equal access to care and protection of patient’s dignity are always a priority in our practice.
As we mainly serve people living in homelessness, injection drugs users, migrants and women living in extreme poverty we seek to develop a sense of belonging and community where social justice, peace, dignity and compassion set the start line for local NGOs and programs to restore the damage caused by structural violence, the force of gentrification ,the chronic abuse of public force upon this community and the culture of shame endorsed by our society.
Our efforts have also extended to the willingness willingness of medical and non-medical students to advocate for the introduction of harm reduction platforms in local college programs as result of their volunteering experiences in the clinic, also, our work has helped create a continued medical education program provided by senior medical doctors to students offering a humane approach to medicine for younger generations.
