The Homeless Outreach Medical Services (HOMES) program is an effort between Parkland and the Children's Health Fund. This program provides medical, dental and behavioral health services to children and adults who are homeless.
Health care services are offered from five medical mobile clinics at various sites throughout Dallas County. Each clinic has a nursing station, two examination rooms, a class D pharmacy and restroom. Clinics are held at most sites on a weekly basis. The HOMES program also offers services at The Bridge and The Stewpot.
