Government resources are available to you
MassHealth Limited can pay for testing and treatment for immigrants not eligible for other government programs. MassHealth Limited will NOT be considered for Public Charge decisions, meaning it will not affect access to a Green Card. See MassHealth and Health Insurance.
Assistance from Non-Profit Organizations
MassUndocuFund, mutual aid organizations, and worker organizations are providing small cash grants for undocumented people and others who might not be eligible for other assistance. Jobs with Justice has more information. Apply for a grant from MassUndocuFund.
