A FREE volunteering service for patient and elderly visitation.
The Muslim Community Association (MCA) has collaborated with Stanford Hospital's Partners in Caring volunteer program to provide assistance for homebound individuals in our community.

-
Homebound persons with chronic illnesses and disabilities
-
Homebound persons recovering from injury/surgery
