Liberia faces profound health challenges due to years of civil unrest and underinvestment in healthcare. The Federation of Liberian Mandingo Associations in the USA (FELMAUSA) is working to improve the health and well-being of Liberians through targeted Health & Wellness Programs. These initiatives address immediate health needs while fostering long-term community empowerment and sustainable health practices.
Preventable diseases remain leading causes of mortality due to inadequate health education and limited access to vaccinations.
Conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease are increasing, often undiagnosed and untreated.
Nearly 15% of Liberian children suffer from acute malnutrition, impacting their growth and cognitive development.
Post-war trauma and limited mental health services leave many Liberians without necessary emotional support.
