Primary Care
The ACC Primary Care Clinic provides healthcare services to the uninsured and medically under-served.

The clinic partners with the City of Detroit and Detroit Medical Center (DMC) Lab to provide the community with low cost lab services.
In partnership with Karmanos Cancer Institute ACC provides pre-screenings for early detection of breast cancer. A young woman with a large lump in her breast neglected getting checked for breast cancer due to lack of insurance. After learning about ACC’s Primary Care Clinic she came in for a prescreening. With the help of our clinical staff she received referral services, a mammogram and treatment at Karmanos. With the assistance of ACC and the screenings she was diagnosed with breast cancer in its early stages. Today she is cancer free and continues to receive yearly mammograms.

Organization Name: Hamtramck School Based Health Center (of Children's Hospital of Michigan)
Organization Overview: The Children's Hospital of Michigan Hamtramck School-Based Health Center (HSBHC), a collaborative effort between DMC Children’s Hospital of Michigan and Hamtramck Public Schools, provides free health care services to the students of Hamtramck Public Schools.
Located in Hamtramck High School, HSBHC , opened it’s doors in 2000 to address the needs of the large Bosnian and Kosovo refugee populations in Hamtramck at that time. Since then the clinic has served children from over 40 different countries in Asia, Africa, Europe and the Middle East.
While the Hamtramck School-Based Health Center services are available to all Hamtramck Public School students, the focus continues to be on immigrant children, as those children are not eligible for Medicaid coverage, other than Emergency services, in the state of Michigan.
Hamtramck is a small city, approximately 2.5 square miles, located within Detroit, Michigan. There is no city health department or low cost health center and so HSBHC serves as one of the major vaccine providers in the area, particularly for the uninsured. The clinic is easily accessible to city residents by car or foot.
