You’re Invited: Join MCN to talk about this moment in migrant health justice!
Migrants are struggling. Clinicians are struggling. But we’re rising up together.
Recently, we shared an update about a significant shift in federal funding priorities. After decades of support from the Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA), MCN will no longer receive federal funding for farmworker-focused training, technical assistance, and clinical resources—the very work that has been at the heart of our mission for more than 40 years.
These changes affect far more than MCN. They affect migrants and immigrants facing growing barriers to care, clinicians and health centers working under increasing pressure, and the training, resources, and support systems that help make care possible.
That’s why we’re inviting you to join Rising Up Together, a community conversation about what this moment means for migrant health, how it’s affecting the field, and how we can move forward together to advance migrant health justice, even in these tough times.
