For the past two and a half years, we have been forced to eliminate our intensive medical outreach missions and mobile clinics. At first, this was due to Covid restrictions and more recently, due to increasing security problems where most of our clinics are located. However, in spite of all of these challenges, we have partnered with Cornerstone Health Foundation to conduct smaller scale outreaches, both in urban and rural areas.
