It provides guidance, direciton, an outline, case studies and a business plan to build a clinic. It provides ways to work in the community gathering the needed in-kind donations, and it provides suggetions for overcoming the hurdles so that once the clinic is open and operational, it remains open.

This book demonstrates one solution for providing health care to those who are medically uninsured. Health care is not a privilege, no one should be denied adequate health care coverage regardless of ability to pay, or because of a pre-existing health care condtion which precludes him or her from receiving coverage.
