To support the development of a sustainable health care system to meet the needs of the Cap-Haitien community with maximum local direction and support.

Government grants cannot meet all of the community expectations for health care services, especially in rural areas. In order to enhance existing services and guarantee that community needs can be met in the future, private contributions and donations are needed today.

Services are for all Cumberland County, Nova Scotia residents. Our on-going programs include summer self esteem workshops for adolescent girls (Go Girl Self Esteem Workouts); Worth Waiting program (postponing sexual involvement) for pre-teens; parent/adolescent workshops (puberty, reproduction, family communication); other school and community-based sexual health and sexual education workshops; sexual health and sexual education lending library; free condoms and free pregnancy testing. We provide services in an environment that respects and supports choice. Non-judgemental. Open Monday-Thursday, by chance or by appointment. websites: www.amherstsexualhealth.ca and www.forgirls.ca
