The Covid-19 pandemic has added another layer of complexity in ensuring the health and safety of the refugee community. WRAP is working with physicians and UMass medical students to:

• Test community members for Covid-19

• Educate community members around the dangers of Covid-19 and the importance of quarantine if Covid-positive 

• Gather information on Covid-19 vaccination status of refugees, and schedule appointments for those who are eligible for COVID-19 vaccine and booster

• Advocate for improvement in interpreter services at health centers

• Collaborate with community health centers to ensure refugees have access to longitudinal medical care
