UConn and the Connecticut Area Health Education Centers (CT AHEC) Program strive to help migrant farm workers overcome these barriers by conducting medical and dental screenings on site at farm worker barracks free of charge. The UConn Migrant Farm Worker Clinics operate annually from June to October offering diagnostic and treatment options for a variety of conditions, both acute and chronic. For over a decade, the UConn Migrant Farm Worker Clinics have annually provided between 300 and 600 migrant farm workers with primary care screenings, oral health screenings, and distribution of medications for mild and self-limited conditions, as well as preventive health education.
