Before starting medical school at Washington State University, Carly Celebrezze helped with outreach for Columbia Valley Community Health in Wenatchee.
During the summer, clinic staff visited migrant labor camps around the region to provide mental health care, checkups and dentistry services. In the winter, they’d do similar outreach among homeless people. ... Some ideas that already have been proposed are bringing the clinic, along with interpreters, to neighborhoods with a large number of Russian and Slavic residents, providing care around Spokane’s homeless shelters and treating people in rural areas of the county, said Dave Kovac, secretary for the Spokane Firefighters Union, a member of the alliance.
