About BHHI

Our History

In recent years there has been an increase in the number of migrants that seek to enter the United States through Mexico’s northern border. Because of recent changes in migratory dynamics and geopolitics, we have seen severe damages to migrants’ health and life-threats increased. In response to this and enabled thanks to the support of Wyss Medical Foundation, BHHI emerged as a humanitarian intervention based on a health promotion and preventive model, focusing on key sites such as migrant shelters and designated centers for healthcare delivery and other services to this population, with the goal of increasing access to healthcare services in Mexico and partner with other organizations working on specific areas. 

Our Mission 

Facilitate access to healthcare among migrant communities at the US-Mexico border through a holistic, person-centered, and tailored approach. 

Our Vision 

To decrease the healthcare access gap among migrant communities through a coordinated response.
