Community Resources
This list brings together community resources focused on Aguadilla, where our clinic is located, and the surrounding western region of Puerto Rico. It was created to help raise awareness of services available in our community that may not always be widely known or easily accessible. It includes resources for mental health and crisis support, domestic violence, substance use, low-cost psychological and medical services, food assistance, legal services, and support for older adults.
Information may change over time, so we recommend contacting each organization directly to confirm current information and availability in other areas of Puerto Rico.
