Building Mental Health Care for Liberia 

Dr. Janice Cooper and her family fled Liberia's brutal civil war two decades ago. In 2010, she returned home as the project lead for a Carter Center initiative that, in partnership with Liberia's Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, will build a sustainable, national mental health care system.  Join her in the field to learn more about the challenges and opportunities Liberia faces to wage peace and build a healthier future.
