About This Cause

APA is a 501 c (3) non-profit organization formed in 2004 by a coalition of community members and physicians in response to the great need for affordable medications. This idea started when Dr. Mendoza, a Santa Maria doctor noticed that many of his patients were not filling their prescribed medications and would often end up in the Emergency Department with worsening health conditions. APA began as a volunteer program operating 7 hours a week on a walk-in basis; now, the on-going program operates in Santa Maria Monday - Friday from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. in office space donated by Marian Regional Medical Center.
