Know your community grass-root organizations. We at BayHeal, strive to make your stay in USA a quality life experiences.
BayHeal or BAYHEAL in short!
At BayHeal, our mission ( briefly) is to empower immigrants in the Bay Area to access healthy living skills as well as providing resources on Support Services in the Bay Area.
Our areas of intervention since January 2015:
a. Mental Health Services; where we have managed to link 8 beneficiaries to mental health support services.
b. Medical Check-ups; we have escorted beneficiaries to hospitals as a way of reassurance.
c. Diet and Nutrition Panning; we have provided talk sessions on dieting and nutrition planning.
d. Exercise and Play; we continue to provide information on nearest aerobics and sports facilities to encourage physical exercise among immigrants.
e. We make home visits or outreach services where necessary.
Bay Area Healthy Living Support and Communication Platform is an officially registered organization with the State of California.
The model of engagement is by working with existing African communities. It combines a snowball and peer-driven linkage contact mechanism.
We are here to serve!
