The NETWORK Adolescent and Children's Clinic operates the entire school year (August -May) to meet the immediate health needs of uninsured or uninsurable children and their siblings within the 14 zip codes of Richardson Independent School District in Dallas County.
The majority of eligible families cannot afford a private doctor, do not qualify for Medicaid, and cannot take time off from work to spend an entire day waiting for services at Parkland Hospital.
Network Of Community Ministries professional volunteer staff of physicians, dentists, nurses, pharmacists, and hygienists set their schedules a year in advance and charge no fee to the little patients who receive the much needed acute care and dental treatment services.
Network Of Community Ministries Adolescent and Children's Clinic aims to decrease hospital emergency room congestion by providing bi-weekly evening service convenient for working parents, and increase student attendance by rapidly returning treated students to the classroom.

*Alaska and Hawaii have different rates for HUD federal poverty guidelines.
These numbers above represent 100% of the Federal Poverty Rate. In order to get reduced or free services from some clinics, they use a sliding fee scale based on your income.When they use a sliding fee scale, the 100% rate can be different than 100%. In those cases, using for example a 200% federal poverty level, you will only need double the 100% number listed above to 200%.
