These outcomes can be avoided by preventing the traffic stops themselves, and thats what we hoped to do with this clinic, said organizer Jonah Hahn. The new clinic was created amid a national racial crisis sparked when a Minneapolis police officer killed George Floyd, a Black man, earlier this year.

Officials say social distancing and public health guidelines will be followed at the clinic to prevent the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19).
