Refugee health
Caring for our community
The Refugee Health & TB Control Program within the Utah Department of Health and Human Services seeks to protect and improve the overall health of Utah’s most vulnerable populations by improving access to culturally informed quality services to prevent and treat communicable diseases resulting in decreased health disparities and increased health equity. The Program works alongside local and federal partners to ensure each newly arriving refugee to Utah receives a culturally and linguistically appropriate health screening, mental health services, health education, and any additional follow-up care.
