This website was developed through relationships between programs at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, Washington, and several of the larger ethnic communities the center serves. It aims to help clinicians and healthcare providers who work with immigrant and refugee populations in the greater Seattle area.
The website provides information about immigration, cultural norms and values, and experience with Western medicine. It also offers culture-specific information and tools that relate to the health visits, as well as translated and culturally-tailored information for patients.
