The majority of our clients are immigrants, people of color, and/or speak English as a second language.

More than 9,600 hospital days are avoided annually because patients have the support needed to leave the hospital.

$80 million in donated health care and $16 million in health-related spending has been distributed since 2007.

I am so grateful for the support that Project Access NOW provides for me and those like me whose legal status keeps them from getting health insurance. Without Project Access NOW, I would have had no other options. Thank you to all who make this service possible.”
