“This app will be helpful in locating the correct place that an
immigrant student should visit.”
“Easy to locate where I need to consult for my medical condition,
less expensive.”
“After coming to the US, I avoided expensive medical care for my
injury cost. I managed my wound myself. Having the right
resources and knowing who to contact would be of great help.”
- Responses from interviews.
The Numbers Are Increasing, So Does the Health Crisis!
Because there are ~1 billion migrants globally
