Health Promotion

Health promotion programming is based on preventing illness and helping people have greater control over their own health and the health of their community. LAMP's health promotion department is involved in a number of activities such as advocacy, community development, education and personal skills development to achieve this goal.

We understand that health is more than the absence of disease. Other factors affect our health like stress, poverty, employment, education, friends and family support. By addressing these needs we improve our health and opportunities for the future.
