World Cares Center is providing medical care to the most devastated villages in Hanover and Westmorland, offering checkups, medications, and health guidance to community members who currently have no access to care.
While delivering free medication and treatment, our team mentors Northern Caribbean University medical students and local volunteers, building a sustainable team of disaster medical providers from within the community.
World Cares Center is training both incoming and local volunteers in the Collaborative Disaster Volunteer Credential (CDVC), equipping grassroots leaders and volunteers with standardized, evidence‑based skills to manage coordination centers and lead recovery efforts safely and effectively.
This common foundation allows groups to work collaboratively across communities and agencies. Learn more and take the free training credential HERE.
Hope, Love, and Courage is a healing arts workshop designed to bring comfort and emotional relief to families, especially children, during times of hardship.
For more than 25 years, this program has been delivered to families impacted by disasters, creating safe spaces where creativity, play, and human connection support healing and resilience.
Our team is delivering the program while also working with NCU humanities interns and teachers, training them to deliver the program in clinics and schools. Your support is needed to supply guidebooks, journals, and materials.
WCC’s approach supports local leaders as they build internal capacity to recover from disasters and rebuild resilient communities.
As our experienced team deploys, they work side by side with the community, mentoring local volunteers, training interns, and leaving behind not only supplies but the knowledge to rebuild shattered lives.
