The HEAL Refugee Health and Asylum Collaborative is a partnership among Johns Hopkins University, the Esperanza Center/Catholic Charities of Baltimore, Asylee Women Enterprise, and Loyola University Maryland to increase access to forensic physical and psychological evaluations, mental health care, and other direct services for survivors of torture and trauma seeking humanitarian protection in the United States. As the first comprehensive refugee health and asylum clinic in the Baltimore area, HEAL aims to address the needs of Baltimore’s burgeoning population of asylum-seekers, which has grown more than 400% over the past decade. In addition, HEAL serves as a valuable interprofessional training site for learners of diverse backgrounds, expanding competency in cross-cultural communication, interprofessional collaboration, immigrant health, human rights, trauma-informed care, forensic evaluation, and medical-legal partnerships.
