Coronavirus Disease COVID-19 Essential Info
Some things to know and keep in mind as we deal with the Coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak.
We have put together key items from a PDF distributed by the CDC. Basically, they suggest social distancing or keeping about 6 feet from others when you go to the grocery store etc. Wash your hands frequently and avoid touching your face unless you wash your hands for at least 20 seconds in warm soapy water.

Free Health Care Clinics in High Demand
With the recent information reported in the Dallas Morning News, it shows without a doubt, that healthcare clinics, like Julia’s Center, serve an ever growing need to provide healthcare services to people without health insurance and who cannot afford to pay. As Dianne Solis points out in her article, the lines and wait times for patients without enough money or health insurance are long for medical services at low cost or no cost clinics in the Dallas area. She noted that one-third of the patients are children, and that the number is up from two years ago due to fear of deportation by illegal immigrants when and if federal government resources are used.

Healthcare Volunteer of the Year – 2018
Congratulations to Jim Fini,
Julia’s Center for Healthcare 2018 Volunteer of the Year!
Jim Fini is Julia’s Center for Healthcare “Volunteer of the Year” for 2018. His commitment and selfless dedication to the Center and to the community for over 3 years has been exemplary. It is for this reason, that he was also nominated to receive the 2018 President Bush “Points of Light” award.
Congratulations Jim, we couldn’t do what we do without you.
Happy 3rd Anniversary Julias Center!
Julia’s Center is now 3! And, what a huge year it has been. We now have a permanent location in Plano with exam rooms and permanent equipment. We can always use more volunteers!
As you know because we pay no salaries and rely exclusively on the volunteers we were able to provide healthcare to our neighbors who otherwise would be without it. A total of 70 volunteers, ranging from physicians to translators and even architects, made this possible. Our volunteers accumulated a total of 8,059 hours of service. (more…)
