Help more Central Texans get the care they need. Give today during People’s Day of Giving: https://bit.ly/AADsocialmedia 🦷💙

Be honest… did you floss today?

Flossing is one of those small habits that makes a big difference. It helps prevent gum disease, reduces cavities, improves bad breath, and even supports overall health. Skipping it may seem harmless… but gums remember.

At People’s Community Clinic, the dental team sees every day how preventive care changes lives. From routine cleanings to complex, life-restoring treatment, access to affordable dental care gives patients the confidence to smile, eat, work, and live without pain.

Your support helps Central Texans stay healthy for years to come.

Help a neighbor smile again during People’s Day of Giving.

Your direct support helps more neighbors get the care they need. Give today at https://bit.ly/AADsocialmedia

When Mario came to People’s Community Clinic, he was living with constant dental pain while managing a chronic disease. Eating hurt. Smiling felt impossible.

Dr. Carlos Diaz took on his complex case and restored his smile through full-mouth rehabilitation. Two years later, Mario is pain free. This only happens with your help.

Volunteer Spotlight – Richard Yuen, PHD

For People’s Board Member Richard Yuen, PhD, a strong community begins with access to affordable, compassionate, and comprehensive care.

His connection to the clinic is deeply personal. Richard’s children are active patients, giving him firsthand insight into the quality and consistency of care People’s provides. Today, he serves on the Board of Directors and as Chair of the Clinical Quality Improvement Committee (CQIC).

As a psychologist, Richard is especially drawn to People’s whole-person model, one that integrates medical, mental health, and dental care in a single, trusted setting.

Thank you, Richard, for volunteering your time and expertise to People's Community Clinic. We appreciate you!

People’s Tandem Teen & Prenatal Parenting Program serves over 100 participants a year with a repeat teen pregnancy rate below 3%, compared to 17-20% statewide.

“The program really helped me feel supported and more confident in managing my goals and providing support with parenting skills, and other needs like school and food resources. I also really appreciated how caring my Tandem case manager was.”

This , People’s Community Clinic honors five extraordinary trailblazers whose leadership reshaped medicine, science, and opportunity in the United States.

From physicians who broke racial and gender barriers to a physician-engineer who traveled to space, their work expanded access, advanced innovation, and opened doors for generations to come.

Their legacy reminds us that progress in health equity begins with courage.

Thank you Rep. Lloyd Doggett for the thoughtful discussion on access to health care. We appreciate your time!

Matt Balthazar

Pleased to see Dr. Nick Yagoda of CommUnityCare, Matt Balthazar of People’s Community Clinic, Jon Calvin of Lone Star Circle of Care, and some of their board members in Washington. A thoughtful discussion on the importance of ensuring that consumers have access to necessary medications and clinics facing financial challenges can continue to serve our community.

Important to protect the 340B program from Big Pharma attacks; it has enabled Austin clinics to offer behavioral health care and addiction treatment.
