• Medical insurance and other health resources 

• Permanent residence and the U.S. citizenship process 

• Financial assistance and nutritional programs

 Participants may ask questions during the presentation or during a Q & A session at the end. We protect your privacy! You will not be visible to other participants during the orientation.
