Where We Work

CHP operates primarily in Narok County in the South Rift region of Kenya. Our health facilities and programmes reach communities across Narok South, Narok North, Narok East and Narok West sub-counties including some of the most remote and underserved areas in the region. Our sites include Ewaso NgiroAitong, Mara Rianta, Talek, Endonyo ErinkaOlkoroi and Elangata Enterit – serving communities that often have limited access to government health services. 

Who We Serve

CHP serves some of the most vulnerable and underserved communities in Narok County including pastoralist communities, women and girls, children of school going age, people living with HIV, pregnant mothers, survivors of gender based violence and households without access to clean water and sanitation. Our work reaches across generations – from immunization for infants to reproductive health for women, HIV treatment for adults and child protection for the most vulnerable.

Over four decades of service in Narok County, CHP has made a lasting difference in the lives of thousands of individuals, families and communities. Our impact includes improved immunization financing in Narok County with the county budget doubled from KES 15 million to KES 30 million, 14,782 children reached across 28 primary schools through the 3K Project, HIV/AIDS care and treatment services delivered across 6 sites since 2004, clean water access provided to schools, health facilities and communities across the county, and COVID-19 response delivered to remote communities in the Mara Rianta catchment area.
