Our Focus
Our focus areas reflect the most urgent health needs in our communities.
We are committed to improving health outcomes in underserved communities by expanding access to care, strengthening health systems, and empowering families through education.
We focus on areas where early intervention, skilled care, and community empowerment save lives.
Our Programs
Below are the major focus areas that define UHF’s mission and daily work, each one essential to advancing health equity and strengthening communities.
Primary Healthcare
We provide basic medical care and preventive services for individuals and families who face barriers to accessing stable, consistent healthcare.
Our services include:
- General outpatient consultations
- Blood pressure & diabetes screening
- Medication support and referrals
- Community-based checkups
- Health follow-up visits
Primary care is the first point of defense against disease — and for underserved populations, it is often the difference between early treatment and life-threatening complications.
Maternal, Newborn & Child Health
Every mother and every child deserves safe, compassionate care. We deliver maternal and child health services that protect families during pregnancy, childbirth, and early childhood.
Our MNCH programs include:
- Antenatal and postnatal care

We work to reduce preventable maternal and child deaths and ensure all families have the support they need during life's most vulnerable stages.

Our education programs cover:
- Hygiene & sanitation

Education builds long-term resilience and helps communities stay healthier, stronger, and more self-sufficient.

Our mental health initiatives include:
- Community awareness campaigns
- Stress management sessions
- Psychosocial support groups
- Early-intervention referrals
