The Midwest Immigrant Health Project (MIHP) is working in three Midwest states organizing immigrant workers and families to secure better health care. Health Action Councils are being formed in a dozen communities, under the leadership of immigrants, to address a wide range of health concerns. Some 40 congregations and parishes in 12 communities in three Midwest states, and 6,000 immigrant workers will be impacted by the MIHP over the course of the next three years, and a Regional Health Action Council will be formed to address health and safety issues in participating communities.
