Safe Passage has released their April newsletter, which focuses on the group’s health program. In addition to the short excerpts published below, you can click here to read the newsletter in its entirety.
In light of the recent earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, methane gas fires, and other natural disasters befalling our global community, Safe Passage focuses in April on the environment and its connection to health and wellness among our children and their families.
The importance of the clinic, in their own words:
“When we have clinics open to the public, the community members can come and receive treatment for certain ailments. We offer medicine and health safety; they can determine and discover sicknesses that are infectious or contagious, which without treatment could provoke an epidemic among the students here.
“We distribute complete doses of treatments, monitor cases that we have attended and keep an eye on the children so that they are healthy and can get ahead in their studies; we do the same for the families so that they can be productive in their jobs. Supporting everything related to health also supports the educational plans of the patients who come for consultations. My job is very comforting because I can support the community.” -Lucy, Safe Passage’s Clinic Nurse.
