What is GUAMAP?
GUAMAP sends Spanish-speaking acupuncturists and other health care volunteers equipped with a full range of medicines, needles, teaching tools and treatment supplies to selected villages in northern Guatemala. Local trainers of health promoters integrate GUAMAP´s acupuncture training course into an ongoing health care curriculum. GUAMAP also sends shipments of medicines and specialized supplies requested by health promoter representatives for various community health projects.
