Mountain Family Health Centers provides health services to all in our community without regard to their income, insurance status, citizenship or immigration documentation. We have provided this care for nearly 40 years, and will continue to do so.
We are well aware some of our patients now fear for their future in this country after the recent issuance of federal Executive Orders regarding immigration, and the expansion in United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) actions. Recent health care proposals in Congress have also raised questions for many.
With news changing almost daily, it can be difficult to keep up. Mountain Family will share the best resources we can find, updating them regularly as new information becomes available. Reliable sources of legal information on immigration include:
- American Immigration Council
- National Immigration Law Center
- Immigrant Legal Resource Center
- American Civil Liberties Union
- American Immigration Lawyers Association
