Medical Teams International
Porchlight (formerly Congregations for the Homeless) seeks to "partner with men and the community to create a path from homelessness to stable living". Medical Teams International partners with Porchlight to provide urgent dental care services to folks from their shelters. US Programs seeks to strengthen the existing US healthcare system by filling crucial gaps in accessing urgent dental care. We ask all of our volunteers to come to their roles with compassion, understanding, and respect for the people we serve. Our volunteers aren’t just the heart and soul of our clinics — they’re the backbone of our work! Bringing free dental care and health screenings to underserved communities only happens because of compassionate professionals like you.
Porchlight, City of Bellevue
We ask that you arrive on site at least 15 minutes before your clinic shift. If for any reason you cannot keep your commitment, please contact the Medical Teams Mobile Dental Clinic Manager as soon as possible. If this is your first time volunteering, please arrive 30 minutes before your clinic shift to meet the Clinic Manager and get oriented to the van. Please bring a water bottle and lunch.
