Tawawami Community Health Program

Introduction:
Tawawami Health Project believes that all children of need and vulnerable youth of the community have the right to proper physical and emotional health. Excellence in health is essential to the development and enhancement of a child’s cognition, physical, and social welfare. Insufficient healthcare, poor nutrition, lack of essential provisions and educational stimulation can have severe consequences to a child’s potential.

In the Tawawami community, the majority of the children that would be served at the project are orphaned, and they are fostered in a relative’s home. Often the environment in the home is not favorable to the child’s well being. Aside from the traumatic loss of a parent due to HIV/AIDS, the child is subject to abuse, child labor, the sharing of a bed with 4-5 individuals in the foster home of a young stepmother, and or elderly grandparent(s).

The Tawawami Health Project will be proactive in educating the entire community. Working cohesively, the goal is to reduce mortality rates that plague the community.

Active participants in the project will learn alternatives that will lead to healthier choices and brighter futures. The program will combat the issue of HIV/AIDS transmission, the segregation of children with HIV/AIDS, and allay a myriad of issues that grossly affect the child and their community. In addition, the program will make valiant efforts to support the foster homes in order to provide a healthier environment for the development of the children in their home.
