Hi Friends of Rock Dove--
Our last Day of Action was so helpful to building our database of free and low-cost health clinics in the NYC area, we are having another one! So for those of you who missed out, here's your chance to join in the fun and learn about clinics in the neighborhood. And those who came out in June-- share your experience and add to the energy again!
Rock Dove Day of Action!!
Health Clinics for Community Healing
Friday November 7th
10:30am - 4:00pm
Your friendly neighborhood Rock Dove Collective is calling our second Day of Action! On Friday, November 7th, volunteers will fan out across the city, visiting free and low cost health clinics and gathering information about their services from both the staff and the clients who are there receiving services. Our goal is to use this information to create comprehensive profiles of health clinics in NYC, as part of our ongoing effort to make free and low cost health services accessible to those in
need.
We will meet up in downtown Manhattan at 10:30am, at a location TBA. Over breakfast and icebreakers, volunteers will receive their travel plans for the day as well as a quick training on how to gather information when visiting a clinic. Volunteers will go out in pairs and hit up 1-2 clinics before we all meet up at 4pm to decompress, share information, eat, drink, and be merry!
How to Contribute:
-Volunteer! Bring your friends! Join us as we hoof it through NYC in search of comprehensive information about free and low cost health services. If you plan on volunteering, RSVP to Freya at freyapowell [at] gmail [dot] com.

We hope to hear from you soon, and to see you on November 7th!
