PICC's health care committee brings together advocates and medical providers,  health care administrators, government employees, consumer advocates, and community-based direct service organizations to identify problems and work together to promote solutions.

We are committed to improving the health of immigrant communities in Pennsylvania through focused advocacy and education on issues such as expanding insurance coverage, increasing access, and removing barriers to care. 

PICC has worked with the Philadelphia health centers to develop language access policies and practices that will help the Centers to better serve individuals that are learning English, to streamline proof of residency, and to train staff on immigrant eligibility.

Members of the health care committee are available to present at conferences and meetings about issues impacting health care for immigrant communities.  Our training program includes special trainings on accessing health care.
