Immigration and Health Care

As a health care provider, our mission is to improve the health of our patients and communities. This means providing advice, support and treatment to everyone in need.

About Immigration and Health Equity

Everyone is welcome at CHA. Our goal is simply to provide high quality care and help people live their healthiest lives. As some immigrants find it harder to access health care, here are some resources that may make it easier to find care and other local services.

Please note that this web page contains the most current resources available at time of posting. CHA does not provide legal advice. Please talk to a lawyer if you have specific legal questions or concerns.
