  The Healthy Adult Program (HAP) provides four separate clinics and programs that meet different needs within Southeastern Ohio. We provide health-care services, including screening services, episodic care, prevention and health education to uninsured or underinsured adults of the Appalachian region. Our programs include Breast and Cervical Cancer Clinics, the Free Medical Clinic, the Free Diabetes Clinic, and HAP Screenings, which test blood pressure, glucose and cholesterol. The focus of these programs is on uninsured and underinsured adult populations. The HAP program provides health education to high school girls about breast and cervical cancer prevention and early detection. HAP also provides information about breast cancer at health fairs in the 13 counties of service.
   
  HAP screenings and the Breast and Cervical Cancer Clinics serve the following counties: Athens, Hocking, Perry, Vinton, Morgan, Washington, Jackson, Perry, Lawrence, Gallia, Ross, Scioto and Pike. The Free Medical Clinic and Diabetes Clinic serve Athens, Meigs, and Washington counties only.
   
  HAP Screenings and Breast and Cervical Cancer Clinics travel to each county in our mobile medical van. The Free Clinic is located weekly on the mobile van in Stewart, Ohio, but also has a location on the 2nd floor of Parks Hall in Athens, where the Diabetes Clinic also meets quarterly. Please contact our offices with questions about where our services are located or to make an appointment.
     
  There are many uninsured and underinsured adults living in Southeastern Ohio who, without our services, would not have routine Pap tests and mammograms or access to affordable health care. Through our cholesterol, blood pressure and glucose screenings, we find many adults with abnormally high readings, and often they are not aware of this. These screenings help people become proactive about their health care, and allows us to provide information to them about improving their health before they develop serious health conditions.
