By The Numbers

Final Counts from the 2015 HHA trip are in! The HHA staff had an incredibly productive year, seeing and treating more women than any previous year! 

Here are the numbers:

Total women seen:  567 

Pap smears performed:  291 

IUDs placed:  15  

Depo Injections:   44  

OCP 1 month packs provided:   3601  

Women sent for follow-up care:   22  

Partner treatments hiked out to community: 32  

Communities visited/treated:  10  

This year's trip added an additional clinic day as well as an additional community to reach more Honduran women. Although HHA continues to make great progress in providing women's healthcare to rural and underserved women, the organization continues to strive to expand its services and reach in years to come. 

Belated Update: 2015 Success

The 2015 Honduran Health Alliance team is celebrating a record-breaking year, with more than 550 women served in the clinic! All members of the team are safely back home.

Enjoy a few brief highlights from the trip below:

We would like to extend a special thank you to all of our supporters that make the Honduran Health Alliance possible. Without your support, we would not be able to provide care and resources to underserved Honduran women. Thank you so much!
