Those in need of medical, dental and vision care will be able to get those services for free June 1-2 in Cleveland, as Remote Area Medical holds a two-day clinic.

Remote Area Medical, also known as RAM, has been operating free clinics around the world for the past 34 years to help people who need medical care, but can’t afford it.

RAM’s clinics draw a large number of people when announced, so plan on getting there early. Those unable to stand for long periods of time should bring folding chairs.

The clinic will be at Cleveland High School in Cleveland. The school will open its parking lot area no later than 12:00 am Saturday, June 1st, with numbered tickets being distributed at 3:00 am.

The same process will be used on both clinic days, Saturday and Sunday.
