Programs
Medical + Mental Health Services
DHM works to make quality healthcare more accessible to those in need. Healthcare facilities are inadequate or non-existent in remote areas and isolated villages in Nigeria. We are building a Divine Hope Health Center in Umume-Obodoukwu, Imo State. Its purpose will be to provide the following:
- Essential medical services, including primary, secondary, and tertiary care
- Crucial mental health and counseling services
- Emergency and first aid health services
- Medication to those in need (free to those who cannot afford to pay and subsidized to those who can afford to pay)
- Basic information on prevention, wellness, and health-related topics.
The Divine Hope Health Center will also serve as a home base for Divine Hope Medical Missions and outreach health programs. When finished, the health center will also host a pharmacy, a maternity clinic, a diagnostic laboratory, an eye clinic, and a nutrition and wellness education program.
Practical Skills Training Programs + Advocacy
Our practical skills training programs seek to help individuals become self-sufficient. They focus on people deprived of employment opportunities and training that would help them care for themselves and their families. Our Practical Skills Training Programs and Advocacy encompass:
- Skill development training
- Direct support
- Providing workshops and opportunities for education on sociocultural factors that hinder healthy living in a community.
From individuals to families to generations, we aim to help rebuild lives and Spread the Light of hope.
Food Services
Many people who live below the poverty line in isolated villages in Nigeria find it difficult to access adequate food supplies. These individuals and families don’t have access to healthy, quality food for themselves or their families. Many of them, particularly the children, suffer from malnutrition and other health difficulties.
Our food programs involve distributing food supplies to individuals and families lacking the resources or have limited means to feed themselves and their families.
