“Las Amigas” is a group of local women who meet about once a month in the clinic at Camanchaj. Their meetings cover a wide array, but ultimately work towards education and promotion of health and hygiene in their own communities. A course consisting of 3 training sessions is held each 18 months, with 6 months in between each course. This allows the attendees to practice what they have learned for 6 months before the next training. The Amigas are equipped with the knowledge and tools to then teach their families, neighbors, and communities at large.
