— serving berkeley since 1989.
the suitcase clinic is a student-led humanitarian organization that serves underserved populations in berkeley. through our weekly drop-in clinics, we provide free health and social services to individuals experiencing homelessness and other vulnerable communities. in addition to direct care, we educate students and organize with the community to address homelessness at its root cause.
