Where We Work

Medical Teams International is a Christian global health organization, helping  people affected by disaster, conflict and poverty in 72 countries. We deliver medical and dental care, humanitarian aid, and holistic development programs to all people in need, regardless of religion, nationality, sex, or race. We respond to disasters around the world—and here at home—by sending teams of volunteer medical professionals and medical supplies to care for the sick and injured. We also mobilize long-term health promotion initiatives, collaborating with established partners within each community to ensure that our programs have a sustainable impact.

We use internationally accepted guidelines which are determined by the global health community. Our headquarters and field staff constantly review our commitments based on needs, capacity and potential for impact. Visit our media center for stories, news and videos of our work.
