The Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Arlington mission proclaims a “duty to serve the most vulnerable of God’s people.” Catholic Charities provides transformative services that offer hope and healing to those that operate in the peripheries of society – especially those in isolation and poverty.
After an abortion clinic closed down, members of the community in Manassas bought the facility and approached Catholic Charities to see if it could offer a service of hope and transformation. Thus, Catholic Charities Mother of Mercy Free Medical Clinic emerged.
Three years later, in 2021 in the midst of a global pandemic, a second clinic was opened in Woodbridge.
The clinic does not charge clients receiving basic medical care they could not otherwise obtain. All of the doctors and nurses who work at the clinics will volunteer their time to provide this free medical care.
The free clinics also serve as a portal toward other Catholic Charities ministries that provide counseling, emergency financial and food assistance, and referrals for workforce development and immigration support, among other services.
For more information regarding volunteering, donations, or general inquires call (703) 335-2779 or email freeclinic@ccda.net.
