CHAT’s Core Purpose:
To improve health, well being and environmental sustainability for the communities they serve.
Many communities that CHAT works with are medically underserved. CHAT is often the only source of reliable healthcare available. Funding will dictate how frequently CHAT’s services will reach and visit each community. Therefore, it is crucial that CHAT integrates a community's self-sustainable access to services into its strategy.
CHAT works with many partners, but believes government is the most sustainable long-term partner for family planning, health, and environment needs of the community.

CHAT’s Model of Community Sustainability
- Enter areas that are under-served and request our services.
- Engage local communities using integrated mobile strategies, which may include door to door Back Packing, vehicles or camels, all whilst using CHAT’s PHE approach.
- Educate and motivate community own resource persons (CORPs) partnering with CHAT to sensitize, mobilize, advocate and access their community services.
- Enhance the well-being of marginalized and disadvantaged communities by providing access to an integrated holistic eco-family planning intervention.
- Empower communities towards a self-sustainable environment.
- Exit once a framework of strong, well-managed leadership and institutional capacity is in place.
One of CHAT’s 3 goals is to:
Increase empowerment and resilience of communities through self-sustaining governance structures.
CHAT's program includes empowering those who live in marginalized communities by educating and engaging them to serve their community when the mobile units are not present and after the program ‘exits’.
