Mustard Seed Communities Inc

Mustard Seed Communities provides lifelong residential care to over 700 children and adults with disabilities in jamaica, nicaragua, dominican republic, zimbabwe and malawi, as well as residential care and support for teen mothers and children and teens affected by hiv. All of Mustard Seed Communities' programs are rooted in a long-term commitment to contribute to local Communities with outreach and community development initiatives, nutrition programs, early childhood education, vocational training, and sustainable agriculture. Mustard Seed Communities' sustainable agriculture program contributes to the residents' overall health by providing consistent access to fresh and healthy produce, eggs, fish and meat. The farming initiatives fulfill a secondary mission of improving food security throughout the local community. An essential aspect of Mustard Seed Communities' mission is to employ, train, educate, and empower a staff built entirely from local Communities. Mustard Seed Communities employs over 600 local community members, offering jobs, training and economic viability to people who would otherwise have no opportunity to break out of the cycle of poverty.
