摘要
The Refugee Health Information Network is an electronic resource designed to make accessible culturally and linguistically appropriate health and medical information in order to improve health services for refugees and asylees. Much of this information will clearly be of value to immigrants as well. This is also a network designed to facilitate collaboration and sharing among state refugee health coordinators and clinics providing services to refugee and immigrant communities.
