Nashi Immigrants Health Board
WHO ARE WE?
- NASHI Immigrants Health Board is a registered non-profit organization founded by community members in partnership with WA DOH. We serve immigrants and refugees from post-Soviet states and citizens of Ukraine who have arrived in the USA under the U4U, UHP or TPS programs.
- We advocate through community engagement, empowerment, and connection to resources. We seek to understand, support, and empower our community and provide for a healthy future through a lens of health equity and social justice.
- Our organization is led by nurses, doctors, and other health professionals who live in the community. Nashi was founded during the COVID-19 pandemic to provide health support to our community of immigrants at high risk for contracting the disease.
- In February 2022, at the start of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, we were well-poised to provide support for our community and the health and social needs of Ukrainian refugees.

WHAT WE DO?
- Regardless of how long you’ve been in the USA – whether recently arrived or have been living here for many years – we have a strong desire to communicate with you and share important information and resources.
- The goal of Nashi Immigrants Health Board is to help all members of the community to live a healthy life, feel less isolated, and access resources that may be helpful to them.
- Today, our work is supported through WADOH and ORIA through federal and state grants, and we serve the health needs of our community by providing health education, creating culturally and linguistically appropriate resources and messaging, participating in community events, providing warm line telephone services and peer support for emotional needs and connecting people to appropriate health resources.
- Our organization is expanding based on the growing needs of our community. We rely on fundraising efforts and donations from the public to enhance our program offerings that serve our community, especially our Ukrainian refugee community here in Washington.
