    About

    In collaboration with the CORE Group, Food for the Hungry and World Relief created this site to share information, presentations, tools, curricula, and results reports regarding Care Group programs.  A Care Group is a group of 10-15 volunteer, community-based health educators who regularly meet together with NGO project staff for training and supervision.
