As Sudan’s health system has collapsed under the weight of war and mass displacement, the Sudanese American Physicians Association (SAPA) is delivering lifesaving care on the front lines. SAPA provides emergency and primary healthcare, hunger relief, water, sanitation and hygiene services, and mental health and psychosocial support, including care for survivors of gender-based violence.
SAPA’s mobile clinics and facility-based teams have treated over 1 million beneficiaries across 13 states in Sudan, delivering over 2 million meals, building 900+ mobile clinics and rehabilitating 130+ healthcare facilities. Annually, SAPA treats hundreds of thousands of patients.
All SAPA-supported healthcare sites are locally staffed by Sudanese healthcare professionals. SAPA works with local communities to restore and sustain primary healthcare in underserved and conflict-affected areas. SAPA brings specialists on medical missions to Sudan to provide emergency care and facilitate life-saving surgeries.
Despite extreme risk, SAPA's teams work daily to deliver care and restore hope. SAPA is globally and locally led, delivering care while strengthening Sudan’s healthcare system for the long term.
Founded in 2019, SAPA was created to empower Sudanese healthcare professionals in the United States while advancing medical education, expanding healthcare access, and providing humanitarian aid to communities in Sudan and beyond.
