2024 Annual Report

“In 68 years, this is the first time that my uncle was able to use a medical card. Thanks to IWS, my uncle will have his eye surgery to get 50% of his vision back.”
“From the moment we check in to the moment we leave, it feels like family.”
“I originally brought my kids here for medical services. But after a while, I noticed that the clinic offered other services, so I started my kids in therapy here. Now, my husband and I also recieve care here, so the whole family is here. We love it!”
“I bring my daughter here just because I love the providers, and I love that I get the help that I need as a single mother.”
“We have been a part of the IWS family for 30 years. My parents brought us when we were you, and now that I am a mother, I bring my children here, too—and they love it here!”
