Nutritional Rehab
Because some families have scant resources - no steady job or income, no land, limited education - parents have difficulty feeding their little children the right kinds of food to help them grow and stay well. They can become very sick because they don’t have nutritious food to eat.
When little children get sick because of the lack of good food, their family has a place to take them to get better. That place is the Nutritional Rehabilitation Hospital of Pan American Health Service in Peña Blanca, Honduras.
The Children’s Home
Sometimes children don’t have a home to return to after recovering from their malnutrition. When this happens the children stay at Home right on the PAHS campus! They live with the other children, play in the trees and fields on campus, find “brothers and sisters” like them, and go to school.

EDUCATODOS
This innovative program helps older teenagers as well as adults to “catch up” with the educational system. Grades one through nine are offered to the public for only a nominal cost for the text-work-book. Students come for two hours a day, four days a week. The program, given morning, afternoon and evening offers the time flexibility that many need to be able to keep up with work and family obligations while getting an education.
Vocational training
Students can learn a trade while studying in the EDUCATODOS program. Areas of study currently available at the PAHS Vocational School are Auto Mechanics, Wood working, and Wood carving.
Elementary and Secondary School
Children from the PAHS Homes attend a private Christian school in the community. Tuition is offered to our children at half the regular price, but the investment is still a sizeable one considering the number of students PAHS sponsors in this high-quality program. The individual attention the children receive is an essential component in their special educational needs.
University Options
Young adults who have grown up in the PAHS homes are encouraged to seek a University education if they have the aptitude. Although funds are limited, PAHS assists the interested young person in finding sponsors to help with the cost of studying in a university.
