About This Grant:
The Maine Mobile Health Program (MMHP), the state’s only farmworker health organization, is dedicated to reducing health disparities and improving access to care for agricultural workers and their families. This project provides transportation for cancer screenings to Maine’s seasonal and migrant agricultural workers and seafood processors. Community Health Workers who are culturally and linguistically responsive to patients’ needs, will ensure safe and reliable access to appointments, including breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screenings. Through this initiative, MMHP furthers its mission to provide culturally appropriate care and services for those who put food on all our tables.
