Mission and Goals

In response to the changing face of Maine the UNE Center for Transcultural Health has been developed to contribute towards the improvement of the health care status of targeted populations and communities by:

1. Providing technical assistance (TA) to local/state/federal policy-makers in developing and implementing health and/or social policies consistent with the (state and national) goals of the Eliminating Health Disparities by 2010 Initiative.

2. Developing educational curricula designed to prepare health and social service professionals to provide culturally appropriate services.

3. Collaborating with local/state health systems and community partners in the [direct] delivery of culturally oriented primary, preventive and public health care services.
