Promoting wellness through education and support. 

Hope Medical Centre

In November 2019 with help from our partners at All the Sky Foundation, HOCW opened its own women’s health clinic. The clinic provides free and subsidized health care to community members based on need. With a focus on women and maternal health the clinic is a source of safe family planning methods, feminine hygiene products, post natal vaccinations and new mom training. As of March 2020, eight beautiful babies have been born at the clinic under the attentive care of our midwife and nurse.

Counselling

HOCW offers counselling for those suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Our counsellors are trained and certified in Narrative Exposure Therapy, a form of treatment for victims of violence who have experienced trauma. 

Health Education

HOCW provides health education classes on topics including personal hygiene, sexually transmitted diseases, domestic violence, post-traumatic stress, anger management, healthy communication, and the safe preparation of food. Our objective is to bring awareness to health related issues. Sometimes we offer free testings, like for blood type or HIV, at HOCW. These services are largely facilitated through our partnership with Rosalind Franklin University in Chicago.
