YPSILANTI, MI The Pull Over Prevention Clinic is back in Ypsilanti, and this time participants can also be administered a COVID-19 vaccine.
The free event is 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. May 22, at Masjid Ibrahim, the Islamic Association of Ypsilanti, 315 S. Ford Blvd.
Pull Over Prevention Clinics have been conducted several times since last August, when the Huron Valley Democratic Socialists of America, the Mutual Aid Network of Ypsilanti and Peace House Ypsilanti combined as a response to institutional racism and mass unemployment or under-employment, officials said.
