This Apostolic Project supports a medical outreach program to the pastoralist, semi-nomadic Turkana people who live on the borders of Kenya, South Sudan and Ethiopia. In addition to operating the Lobur Parish dispensary, the dispensary staff conducts 12 mobile clinics each month in various areas of North Turkana.

Each year, the dispensary treats approximately 19,000 clients. Over the last six months alone, more than 600 children were immunized, more than 600 mothers were given postnatal care, prenatal care was given to nearly 500 mothers, child welfare care provided to more than 1,500 children, nutrition was improved for about 2,570 people among other services administered.
