Our Work
Every few years, the Evergreen field staff in China holds a planning meeting to determine whether or not the current professional service areas meet the ongoing needs of the local communities and redefine them as needed. These professional service areas then help determine our need for additional team members, as well as help us focus on projects that will best serve each community into the future. We currently serve in three locations in Shanxi Province, through eight identified areas of professional service:
Medical Work and Rehabilitation
Projects address prevention, treatment, diagnostics, surgeries, etc.
Economic Development Enterprises
Projects that assist locals to start, develop and run healthy businesses
Family Services
