The URL for the Berkeley Free Clinic is: http://www.berkeleyfreeclinic.org/home.html. The Berkeley clinic is run as a cooperative and is part of the Network of Bay Area Worker Cooperatives at http://www.nobawc.org/index.php. I don't know how common the cooperative structure is among free clinics. For more information on Free Clinics you can visit the National Association of Free Clinics at: http://www.freeclinics.us/ In the Bronx, the Einstein medical students have organized the ECHO free clinic. The URL is: http://www.echo-clinic.org/. Matt Anderson Thank you for this suggestion.
