About Us

The mission of Project HEAL is to implement and conduct service projects in Latin America and Durham with the goal of reducing global health disparities, particularly those of child and maternal health, through education and empowerment. We value sustainable development and preventative measures that aim to improve community health and help bridge the gap between Duke and Durham. Members of Project HEAL will collaborate with other student groups and community partners to coordinate effective health education projects in Honduras and in Durham. In the future, we hope that our health education and capacity-training efforts can be sustainable within the communities that we serve.
