Travis County Medical Alliance (TCMA)
TCMA partners with the Clinic on special events throughout the year including Healthy Kids Day.  In addition to providing backpacks filled with school supplies and healthy snack bags, they often obtain bike helmets from the Texas Medical Association to distribute.  It is through the generosity of individual TCMA members that at least 5 - and as many as 8 - VHC families are adopted at Christmas time.  Wish lists and sizes are collected and TCMA members and their families proceed to purchase gifts for the entire adopted family.
