The project was funded by the Health Sector Programme (HSP) and co-financed by the International Development Bank (IDB) in collaboration with Government of Guyana. The building was officially opened on the 2nd December, 2009.

Survivor Advocates Engage Patients at Outpatient Department

Representatives from the Ministry of Human Services and Social Security, including survivor advocates Thenga Adams, Linda Alley, and Danella Fifi, visited the Outpatient Department where they conducted an informative session with patients.

The team shared valuable information on gender-based violence, the Family Violence Act 2024, and sexual offence matters, while also highlighting the various support services offered by the Ministry and how individuals can access them.

Patients were encouraged to utilize the Ministry’s 914 hotline, a 24-hour toll-free service providing immediate assistance to victims of abuse. They also introduced the iMatter app, which allows users to access information, connect directly to the hotline, and receive support services digitally. 

The session aimed to raise awareness, provide support, and empower individuals with the knowledge and resources needed to seek help.
