Health Care Support

Stop Child Abuse (SCA) is seeking dedicated volunteers to join our health care team in refugee camps.

Our health program aims to improve refugees' physical and financial access to quality health care, ensuring that all individuals, especially vulnerable populations, receive the support they need.

As a volunteer, you will play a vital role in enhancing health services by supporting health centers and hospitals, as well as contributing to the effective management of the health system. Your efforts will directly impact the lives of those we serve, particularly children who are victims of violence, including rape.

Key Responsibilities:
- Assist in the delivery of comprehensive care to children and families in need.
- Support the central Ministry of Health in implementing a quality medication distribution system.
- Help develop sustainable financing solutions for health services and ensure transparency in the sector.
- Collaborate with medical staff to enhance their skills and competencies.

We are looking for individuals with a background in health care, public health, or related fields who are passionate about making a difference in the lives of refugees. If you are ready to contribute to improving health care access and quality in refugee camps, we encourage you to apply and join our mission!
