Newcomer Health

At the San Diego American Indian Health Center, we are honored to provide services through our Refugee Health Assessment Program (RHAP) for newcomers arriving in San Diego, funded by the County of San Diego. Our program is designed to offer culturally and linguistically appropriate healthcare and support services to newcomers in the San Diego region.

The Refugee Health Assessment Program is a comprehensive initiative focused on addressing the unique health needs of refugees. It provides essential health screenings and support to help individuals and families transition successfully into their new lives.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: We encourage all of our patients to familiarize themselves with our Patient Rights and Responsibilities form. Learn more ›
