Since its inception the clinic has steadily expanded its geographical footprint from Laikipia to include wide swaths of Northern Kenya in Samburu, Isiolo and Meru. And it has further extended its community based family planning services to Nakuru County located in central Kenya. Over time the Mpala Community Trust was transformed into the Community Health Africa Trust (CHAT). For more information visit the CHAT Mobile Clinic website at www.chatafrica.org.
