Collaboration between St. Benedict Menni and MSF-Liberia
Our centre in the capital will provide women referred by the medical and humanitarian
The Mental Health Unit of the Benedict Menni Health Center in Monrovia will treat Liberian women who suffer or have suffered mental illness or substance use disorders referred by Médecins Sans Frontières.
Under a Memorandum of Agreement signed by Sisters Hospitallers and Médecins Sans Frontières, our centre in the Liberian capital will provide women referred by the medical and humanitarian organisation with multidisciplinary diagnostic and rehabilitation programs aimed at restoring their dignity, promoting their physical, social and psychological well-being and reintegrating them into their community.
The MoU signed by the Superior of Sisters Hospitallers of Liberia, Sister Winnie Guyao, the head of MSF in that country, Dr. Yann Diplo, and the director of the National Catholic Health Council (NCHC) of Liberia, Wilhelmina Kade, has a one-year renewable duration, and will also allow professionals from the Benedict Menni Health Center to benefit from training programs organized by Médecins Sans Frontières.
