Partnership with our Terra Firma program continues to grow
Every young person from 0 to 19 years old — regardless of his or her immigration status — has a right to access medical services, proclaimed City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito in a press conference announcing a $1.5million dollar Immigrant Health Initiative that will expand legal, medical and translation services for undocumented immigrants in NYC.
The initiative will operate in partnership with Terra Firma (http://www.terrafirma.nyc/), the groundbreaking program run by Children’s Health Fund, Montefiore Health System and Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of New York.
