WASH(Water, Sanitation and Hygiene.) –  Since voluntary repatriation and reintegration are basic prerequisites of successful post conflict rehabilitation and the ultimate expectation of any displaced population, providing basic amenities upon settlement in their forlorn communities is a vital goal of ACORN Initiative.  At ACORN, we have a long term goal of building and maintaining  boreholes in designated communities to meet their basic WASH needs and provision of irrigation systems for their farms since majority of the displaced persons are farmers.

HIB(Health in a Box) – Displaced persons often return to their communities to meet inadequate or nonexistent infrastructure with which to proceed with their normal lives. At ACORN, our long-term goal is to build hospitals and health centers which will be equipped to meet the primary health care needs of the community ranging from free medical checkups, treatment and counselling. This health centres will be located within the communities and have regular visits by our team of medical volunteers.

STB(Skill Tool Box) – Reintegration is better achieved when displaced persons are empowered to support their families. The displaced population are often composed of widows and farmers who are saddled with responsibilities, We at ACORN see empowering widows and the women population with skills such as soap making, baking, tailoring and IT literacy as a way of making them self-sufficient. The knowledge of these skills will also be backed up with financial grants to purchase the necessary materials for startup.  Farmers will be given financial grants to enable them commence farming activities in their communities.

LIB(Library in a Box) – With an almost nonexistent state of basic infrastructure in the devastated communities, educational activities will suffer a setback for the displaced population, our long-term goal at ACORN is to build schools or rebuild blocks of classrooms in each community and equip them with adequate learning materials to further gear up the intellectual capacity of the returnees. This is an effort to keep the youthful population educated and occupied while they prepare for the life ahead and possible career opportunities in the future. Scholarships will also be provided at different levels of education for the returnees. 

MIGRATION – At the centre of our humanitarian services is the outreach to refugees, migrants and homeless persons who are among the exploding migrant and refugee population in the world today. We identify with migrant families to address the social and economic barriers that they face while also partnering with refugee and migrant community organizations, groups and faith based networks to effectively service the pressing needs of homeless persons, refugees and migrants around the world. We see homelessness as a global epidemic affecting migrants, refugees and indigents making our outreach to help the homeless get on their feet a tripartite and all-inclusive action to salvage humanity. The world is currently overwhelmed with a housing situation leaving countless persons homeless resulting in an urgent need to provide help and succor.
