Our Mission
Using the Promotor(a) model, Migrant Health Promotion provides culturally-appropriate health education and outreach and sustainable community development to farmworker, migrant, border, and/or other underserved or isolated communities throughout the nation. Through increased knowledge and skill building, individuals and families will be empowered to live healthy lives.
Our Vision
Our populations and their communities will enjoy health without barriers and will be respected, honored and rewarded equitably.
Our Values
The populations we serve contribute significantly to the welfare of our country. Migrant Health Promotion is grateful for the work they do and is committed to support them in improving their lives. We believe we do that best when we:
- Treat all people with respect and compassion
- Create trust by acting with honesty and integrity
- Collaborate to create communities that are empowered to improve their own circumstances
- Change systems to eliminate root causes of poor health and of health disparities
- Use community-driven approaches that use the skills, talents and wisdoms of the people with whom we work
Strategic Plan: 2013-2017
- Engage in policy discussions to support our mission, including defining and evaluating MHP’s role at the national, state, and local levels in Health Care Reform including Accountable Care Organizations, the Health Care Marketplace, and other components.
- Continue expanding and ensuring holistic services to populations served by our mission nationwide.
- Broaden and diversify the funding streams for programs that fulfill our mission, including generated revenue.
- Establish integrated, comprehensive national trainings to support Promotor(a) programs in appropriate settings.
