Our Model
We work with local leaders, change agents, and organizations in Perú to develop foundational programs—our Communities of Excellence—that provide blueprints for standardizing and expanding contextualized care systems for children across the region.
Our Programs
With over 30 years of experience in Perú, we have co-developed model programs—Centers of Excellence—that provide children, youth, and families access to individualized support and meaningful connections that foster health and well-being:

Ines Project
A family caring for a medically fragile child lives with the guilt of the child’s illness. With [the right] information and conversation, they liberate themselves from these feelings of guilt and become committed to the child’s highest and best quality of health.

We feel a genuine commitment from HBI for the children and the staff; we feel like family and have trust. We are constantly receiving training to improve our work with [formerly abandoned] children moving forward with their life.
