Rebuilding a Safe Haven for Future Crises

Next steps for Intercambios Puerto Rico

By Rafael Torruella | Ejecutive Director

Just 6 years ago, after Hurricanes Irma and Maria, we were supported by many amazing organizations and collaborators, GlobalGiving among them.  With this support we listened to our close community and by in large people wanted health, they wanted a local, responsive, close to the community health center that could provide for them and their loved ones quality care.  

Intercambios Puerto Rico took this message to heart and we built out, beyond our continuum of outreach and prevention services, a health clinic that has been growing throughout the years.  And just last month we were notified that we are now an Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) and soon we will be increasing our already community based services to include primary care for the Municipalities of Fajardo, Luquillo, and Ceiba.  

Please stay tune to our social networks for more updates.  There is so much more to come!!!
