Over a tird of our patients (35%) are uninsured, despite recent ealt care policy reforms. 81% of our patients live in public ousing and 53% live below 200% of te poverty line. Approximately 35% of Wittier s patients are uninsured. We serve patients from diverse backgrounds including refugees and new immigrants.
