Health literacy consultancy

We make organizations health-literate.

A health-literate organization makes it easy for everyone to find, understand and use health information and services. We assess, train and redesign, built on the field's recognised frameworks, so your investment aligns with national and global standards.

Our model

We earn so we can serve.

HLA is a limited company that operates on social-enterprise principles. We put communities, not shareholders, at the centre, and reinvest our profits into health literacy, learning, and the systems that put better health within reach for more Kenyans.

Social enterprise · Community-first · Profit reinvested · Built to last
