About the Agape Clinic
For 40 consecutive years, the Agape Clinic has provided quality healthcare services unconditionally to underserved people. View our Video 💜
On Saturday, August 20, 1983, the Agape Clinic (Agape) began seeing and treating patients in a basement closet of Grace United Methodist Church (GUMC), providing free healthcare on Saturdays. In 2000, Agape merged with Baylor Community Care, expanding to a four-day week clinic within GUMC, while partnerships grew with Dallas County Health, LabCorp, Americares, and Direct Relief. Then, in 2015, Agape partnered with Texas A&M Dental School, launched a capital campaign, and purchased its new clinic across the street from GUMC. This clinic includes 13 medical exam rooms, seven complete dental suites, and a multipurpose integrated medical space, expanding healthcare services to six days per week. Healthcare access was further expanded at the Agape Clinic to seven days a week in 2017 when refugee care (primarily for Burmese/Myanmar, Afghanistan, & African refugees) became available on Sunday afternoons. In 2021, comprehensive patient & family-centered integrated healthcare service expansion began.
The Agape Clinic is a 501c3 tax-exempt organization, a 100% privately funded charity healthcare facility, and provides healthcare services unconditionally. Agape is located in Dallas and extends care to Dallas County and the surrounding area without any restrictions (no income, zip code, or insurance prerequisites). The Agape Clinic requests a patient donation, yet healthcare services are always rendered without consideration of the patient’s ability to pay.
All Agape’s patients are less than 200% below the federal poverty level, 95% are minority, 100% have comorbidities, and 100% are uninsured. The Agape Clinic sees patients from over 262 zip codes and 23 counties. Through Agape’s strategic partnerships, most medications and lab work are free.
