Since 1979, Medical Teams' International (formerly Northwest Medical Teams) has provided life-saving medical care for people in crisis, including survivors of the Rwandan genocide, the South Asia tsunami in 2004, Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and the 2010 Haiti earthquake. In 1989, we launched a Mobile Dental Program, providing free dental care to people in need right in our neighborhoods in the Pacific Northwest US.

With our history and experience, we’ve grown into our role as experts in disaster response – disasters that are both natural and manmade. Right now, we’re responding to the COVID-19 pandemic and the largest refugee crisis the world has ever known.  Our staff and volunteers care for the hurting in frontline clinics, refugee camps and remote villages. In places where mothers and babies are dying. Where outbreaks threaten to overtake entire communities. Where local health systems are overwhelmed or non-existent.

We are a highly-regarded humanitarian relief agency – known internationally and locally for our expertise in refugee health care, disaster relief, and mobile medical and dental programs.
