The Inter-American Health Alliance
Who We Are : The Inter-American Health Alliance is a volunteer-run 501(c)3 charitable organization that supports community health organizations working with marginalized populations in the western highlands of Guatemala. We provide financial, technical and organizational support to our partnering organizations.
We work to improve access to health care and
health education through the development of innovative
collaborations between governmental, non-governmental, and
educational institutions.
We believe in the power of service-learning and in the potential for sustainable university collaborations to improve health conditions in the communities where we work and to speed access to up-to-date, evidence-based clinical information and medical technologies.
