The Leo Project

Started in honor of Caitlin O'Hara, The Leo Project believes that equitable access to #education and #healthcare is a human right.

[The Leo Project @LeoProjectKenya]

Agreed! Equitable access to healthcare is important particularly to less privileged communities. We, through our Caitilin O'Hara Community Health Clinic, are working closely with mothers to ensure they are able to access our maternal healthcare services.

Impacts of climate change are increasingly part of our daily lives & there is very little dedicated mental health support available for people and communities dealing with climate related hazards.
Engaging healthcare and mental health professionals in these conversations is key.
