The Refugee Health Promotion Program

The Refugee Health Promotion (RHP) Program promotes the health and well-being of refugees and other ORR-eligible populations through:

1. Increasing health literacy
2. Coordinating healthcare
3. Organizing wellness groups.

Funding and Eligibility

Any non-profit with 501c3 status is eligible to apply, including faith-based and community organizations. ORR has issued RHP funding in three streams:

1. Afghan RHP, serving Afghan humanitarian parolees and their immediate families, Afghan refugees, asylees, SIVs, SI-CPRs, and SQ/SI parolees.
2. Ukraine RHP, serving Ukrainian humanitarian parolees and their immediate families,
3. Base RHP, serving ORR-eligible populations not covered under Afghan or Ukraine funding.

USCRI Missouri allocates funding on a fiscal year basis, running from October 1 through September 30.
