The Jonesboro Church Health Center, at the corner of Kitchen and Washington, has been providing low-cost, high-quality healthcare to low income, uninsured patients since 1992.

In 2023, the clinic saw about 2,000 patients from communities in Arkansas and Missouri. They charge $20 per visit, but no one is denied medical care due to lack of ability to pay.
The hours of operation are Monday through Thursday from 8:15 to 3:45. Appointments are needed. The phone number is 870-972-4777.
