It has now grown to be a primary care clinic providing free medical care, social service resources, medication assistance, medical specialty referrals, and health insurance application assistance to low-income individuals and families in the south metro area. The clinic is the only free medical clinic in Washington County. Located in Tualatin, Borland Free Clinic is an easily accessible place for those in need of free and reduced medical care. Located just 30 minutes from Portland, Tualatin is a southwestern suburb. The city is named after the Tualatin River, which flows along most of the city’s northern boundary. With the innovative public health work happening in Oregon, Tualatin is a wonderful place to explore a future in public health. This position includes ongoing professional development opportunities by participating in bi-monthly networking meetings, conferences, and more. The VISTA will have access to free medical care through the clinic, access to the Tualatin Food Bank, and a $50 monthly gas card.
