2027 Medical Mission Trip to Sega, Kenya with Juani

Who We Are: Juani is a fiscally sponsored project of the 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, Empowerment WORKS and our mission is to improve the lives of women and girls in rural Kenya through healthcare, education, and empowerment. Our licensed Level II health care clinic in Sega, Kenya specializes in women's health care, and our current initiatives focus on expanding access to cervical and breast cancer screening, providing quality obstetric care, improving health literacy, and supporting survivors of gender-based violence. Our clinic is open year-round to serve the community of Sega but once a year, we host a medical mission trip to provide free healthcare and medicine to our most vulnerable patients and clients. Last year, we treated over 500 patients in five days!

• Registered Nurses (3)
