EUREKA — November 7, 2026. Hundreds of residents visited Eureka Municipal Auditorium on Friday for a free health clinic offering dental treatment, vision services and medical screening. Organizer California CareForce plans to continue the clinic through Sunday, November 8.

Which services are available?

Volunteer providers have offered services including dental extractions, dentures, eyeglasses and basic health screenings, according to Lost Coast Outpost’s November 6 coverage. Services are provided on a first-come, first-served basis. A patient seeking more than one category of care may need to rejoin the queue.

Addressing a local need

California CareForce Executive Director Cyndi Ankiewicz told the publication the group expects approximately 1,200 people over three days, an estimate rather than a confirmed patient count. The event relies on volunteer health professionals from Humboldt County and elsewhere. Organizers noted particular demand for affordable dental work and limited access to local health professionals.

Before you go

People interested in attending on Saturday or Sunday should confirm the organizer’s current check-in schedule, service capacity, required forms and any changes at the California CareForce website. Availability of specialized treatment cannot be guaranteed. This is a temporary clinic, not a permanent replacement for a primary care provider.
