The room has multiple tables and chairs and a cabinet for supplies needed by the students for their clinical activities. Additional space is available on the community center campus for specialized activities that require a non-distracting environment e.g. developmental screening of the head start children. In addition to providing a site for walk-in screening and education services, the room serves as a base of operations for the work of the CNCA throughout the community.
