Immigrants face many unique challenges in accessing the same public services and rights that non-immigrants may take for granted. This includes challenges in accessing health care, education, public benefits, and workers rights and protections. These challenges are largely due to ?upstream? factors such as governmental policies, which means that it is very important for public health professionals to also work ?upstream. In this webinar, Dr. Emily Franzosa discusses the barriers and benefits of working ?upstream,? specifically in relation to immigrant health. She describes some state and local strategies to promote inclusion and improved access to resources, and the role of the health department in these strategies. Examples of inclusive services through New York’s Municipal ID (NYCID) program, Nashville’s Welcoming America program, DACA, and Pre-Health Dreamers (PHC) are also discussed.
