Catholic institution (international congregation) for the poor, in Ibadan we run a program of special school for mentally disable children, physiotherapy for the same, training in agriculture and crafts for adolescent and youth with mental disability. We also run a weekly clinic with local volunteer doctors for the poor in the community and relief aid for the aged in the community.
The institution belongs to the Catholic Church, but welcomes any person in need, (presently, most of our clients are Muslim). The staff, whether employed or vounteer, should abide with the guiding educational and rehabilitational principles of our preventive system of education, that has its roots in a Christian vision of the human person. They need not be Catholic nor Christian.
