Latin American Health Institute

The Latin American Health Institute (LHI), New England's premier community-based public health organization, serves over 25,000 Latin American families and individuals annually through more than 24 direct care programs supported by 50 separate contracts. We also serve healthcare professionals, para-professionals, and institutions through education and training activities, technical assistance, fiscal sponsorship, and program oversight. As a public health organization since 1987, the core of LHI's activities focuses not only on addressing specific health concerns, but also in strengthening families and developing community resources. LHI works with numerous public and private organizations across a wide range of issues in five programmatic areas: research, policy, education, service, and technical assistance.
