Bobbi and Others,

In response to your question, I was forwarded this message from a colleague in HHS who said it is from the HRSA Communications Office.

Do you have any sense what this change means in real terms re funding/support/commitment for migrant health or migrant health research. I don't necessarily take it as a good sign.
