About us

CHASL was founded in May 1975 as the result of a workshop conducted for leaders of all Church related health programmes in Sierra Leone.

The leaders of these Church-related health programmes had requested the assistance of the Christian Medical Commission of the World Council of Churches in Geneva a year earlier (1974) to evaluate the contribution of the Churches to healthcare in Sierra Leone.

As a result, the CMC invited them to designate three participants to the African Coordinators Conference, which was held in Mombasa, Kenya, in February 1975. In May 1975, the CMC sent Dr. Stuart Kingma, Associate Director of the CMC, to tour Sierra Leone and gather information on all the hospitals and rural health work being carried out by various missions and churches.

This visit culminated in a workshop on 30th-31st May 1975, during which the possibilities of forming an agency for planning and coordination were thoroughly explored and finally approved.
