The Ithaca Health Alliance (IHA) is a 501(c)3 organization that sponsors and operates the Ithaca Free Clinic. The Ithaca Health Alliance has been dedicated to seeking solutions to local healthcare issues since 1997. Opened in 2006, the Ithaca Free Clinic is widely known as one of the first free clinic in the US to offer both primary medical and holistic care through an integrated model.

The mission of the Ithaca Free Clinic is to provide access to health care based on need, not on ability to pay, where the talent and generosity of our health care community come together through mainstream medicine, complementary alternative medicine, and social advocacy to establish health care as a human right, not a privilege.
