Healthy Community Initiatives
As a part of NACC healthy community initiatives, NACC helps organize health events with community partners. NACC helped organized three health events with Restoring Dignity in 2021 and also a recent health fair on May 20th, 2023.
NACC staff and volunteers help Afghan families with interpretation of medical bills, assisting them by making phone calls on their behalf to the relavant medical offices to collect bills. We also help Afghan families with scheduling medical appointments.
NACC is dedicated to the mental health and well being of all Afghans who were exposed to a tremendous trauma during long lasting war in the country. NACC staff understand how to engage Afghan families in peer support activities by using their cultural and linguistic background.
NACC focuses on individual and group counciling for families and individuals but mainly uses sports such as Cricket, Soccer, Volleyball and National Dance groups as a means of communication and interaction. NACC organized an Indoor Cricket tournament for local Afghans in the winter of 2022, attracting more than 200 individuals to take part in a one month long tournament.
