Medical Teams International
Iraqi Arab Health Board is "a group of health professionals who work with Arabic-speaking immigrants and refugees in Washington state. All members work within different organizations that help underserved communities to address their health needs in Washington state. [They] provide culturally relevant health promotion through health education and health fairs." Medical Teams International is partnering with the Iraqi Arab Health Board to provide urgent dental care services to the local community on a monthly basis. US Programs seeks to strengthen the existing US healthcare system by filling crucial gaps in accessing urgent dental care. We ask all of our volunteers to come to their roles with compassion, understanding, and respect for the people we serve. Our volunteers aren’t just the heart and soul of our clinics — they’re the backbone of our work! Bringing free dental care and health screenings to underserved communities only happens because of compassionate professionals like you.
