A Healthy World

Access to quality and affordable healthcare is such a basic human right, a basic human need. However, many people around the world do not have access to quality health care education, facilities, physicians, or the money available to purchase life saving medicines or bus fare to the nearest hospital to seek treatment.

Peacework health programs are coordinated with local officials and rural clinics to address medical concerns specific to a community or region. With partners like the Red Cross in Puerto Penasco, Mexico and rural health clinics around the globe Peacework is able to provide much needed medical support in the form of health education, health treatment, and access to medicines.

You don't have to be a doctor to have an impact on community health.  Peacework health camps share knowledge and resources to encourage healthy living, nutrition, and exercise.
