More than 50 million Americans are without health insurance. Many more have no dental or vision coverage or cannot afford their high deductibles. Care Harbor clinics are community based events, drawing on local health care institutions, agencies and volunteers. Care Harbor event organizers and healthcare professionals work in partnership with local groups to recruit resources and volunteers, coordinate and manage event logistics, and assure the most effective delivery of care – from patient handling and record keeping to educational exhibits and follow-up systems.

MBKU's Optometry interns and staff will be volunteering at the arena to provide eye and vision exams and screenings to the underserved population.
