"The Free Clinic holds itself accountable
not just for action…but also results. We are driven by a commitment
to make a difference in individuals, families and communities."
Board of Directors
When
you support HAFCI, you are contributing to a safer, healthier community.
90% of clients enrolled decrease their use of drugs or alcohol and
more than 50% are able to maintain sobriety for 3 to 5 years. 75%
decrease in their criminal activity, become a tax payer and reunite
with their families. HAFCI's extremely high success rates mean that
your donation has an immediate measurable result of saving lives
and healing families.
The vital services provided by HAFCI reach 65,000
people each year and do so on a cost-effective basis. For example,
it costs $915-$1,950 per year to treat an addict on an outpatient
basis as opposed to $30,000 per year to house the addict in county
jail; $7 hard dollars are saved for every $1 dollar spent on treatment.
A visit to the Free Medical Clinics costs around $110, while the
same service would cost $750 at San Francisco General Emergency.
Your contributions, however large or small, truly go a long way.
