Our basic life support training continues in Barnesville Township, students enjoy learning and applying these practical, yet critical skills in their schools and communities.....

Accredited by the Ministry of health to implement health programs in Liberia.

This week, we were excited to initiate our three months school health program in The Patrick Wesalyn High School at 72nd junction.
The program equips students with basic first aid skills, health and sexuality rights, maintenance and increased usage of WASH facilities skills as well as SRHRs education.
We are glad to pur partners and volunteers for such an endeavour.

First aid training is a crucial component of student life on campuses. Equipping students with essential skills not only promotes a culture of safety and preparedness but also empowers them to respond effectively in emergencies. By learning to administer basic first aid, students can make a significant difference in critical situations, saving lives and supporting their peers. Investing in first aid training is an investment in the well-being of our future leaders, ultimately contributing to healthier campuses and stronger communities.

First Aid Ambassadors: A Source of Mental Health Support in Schools!

Our First Aid Ambassadors Program has been designed to specially trained students to serve as peer support leaders within their schools. They are equipped with the skills and knowledge to provide basic first aid, as well as emotional support to their peers. By bridging the gap between students and professional help, these first aid ambassadors play a crucial role in promoting Mental Health Awareness and Reducing Stigma.

In Liberia, SGBV remains a pervasive problem, impacting the lives of countless girls and women. Despite ongoing efforts to combat this issue, many cases go unreported due to stigma, cultural practices, fear of retaliation, and inadequate support systems. To boost the Government of Liberia strategic efforts in addressing sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) and protection for girls and young women who are primarily affected, Collaborating Against Poverty (CAP) Liberia has designed her community projects to increase awareness on sexual and gender-based violence against women in the homes, workplaces, etc.
