The HEAC Committee at the Willow Clinic is oriented toward educating our members, patients, and the community about medications, medical conditions, and the challenges faced by our patient population. Furthermore, the committee reaches out to lawmakers to advocate for policies that would prove beneficial to the unhoused population, while working to strike down policies that are detrimental.
Our Education Nights inform our patient population on a host of topics including:
Interview workshops
Planning workshops
Resume nights
Finance workshops
Community presentations at local highschools and college classrooms to destigmatize homelessness
Educational materials and medical supplies for podiatry health
Our Shoe Drive aims to provide shoes for our patients during the cold and wet winter season
Held in conjuction with our annual Coat Drive at Veteran's Day Health Fair
Shoes collected through community donations as well as thrifting from local shops
