The Newcomer Health Hub (NHH) provides evidence-based, culturally-specific health information for newcomers and refugees. It also educates community members and frontline healthcare workers on how to treat the complex health challenges newcomers may have. Three medical students started the online resource to advocate for and empower newcomers to take control of their own health. They've created infographics focusing on how conflicts around the world impact immigrants, refugees, LGBTQ+, South Asian, African, Caribbean and Black communities respectively. They also share knowledge around mental health and sexual and reproductive health.
