At Multicultural Centre for Women's Health, we are committed to improving your health and wellbeing.
We believe that everyone has the right to get accurate and up to date health information in their own language. We recognise that COVID-19 (coronavirus) is a gendered issue and that migrant women need information that is relevant to their experiences.
We will keep adding new resources to this page. Please email us at info@mcwh.com.au or call 1800 656 421 if we do not have the information you need.
To stay up to date about the virus, call the Coronavirus Health Information Line on 1800 020 080. You can ask for an interpreter by calling TIS on 13 14 50.
