About

AMOS Health and Hope is a non-profit Christian organization dedicated to improving the health of poor and marginalized rural populations. We use the strategy of community based primary health care to increase health care coverage in areas with limited services. We train lay health workers in rural communities to manage and run their own community clinic, prevent and treat the most common illnesses, and work in community development to address the root causes of poor health such as access to safe water and sanitation.

We currently serve a population of over 13,000 people in 27 communities in four departments in Nicaragua – Boaco, Chinandega, Matagalpa, and the RAAS. We have two medical teams that accompany, supervise and monitor the health work being done in rural communities.  We are committed to implementing interventions that are evidence-based, compassionate and empowering for communities.
