Welcome to the Family Care Centre
The Family Care Centre Charitable Trust is a registered New Zealand charity. It is also registered as a Charitable Association in Vanuatu as Marine Reach Vanuatu. Marine Reach Vanuatu has a Memorandum of Understanding with the Ministry of Health of Vanuatu to assist in providing quality health care and training for the people of Vanuatu.
The Family Care Centre has been established just outside of the capital city Port Vila in Vanuatu. This facility consist of three buildings that will allow the organization to train, empower, equip, and spiritually support local islanders in our surrounding communities.
The Family Care Centre runs a YWAM DTS every year in partner with Youth With a Mission’s DTS program. (See our Training page.)
This facility is the only one of its kind in the southwestern Pacific Region. It also serves islanders from neighboring nations.

The Family Care Centre Has 3 Components
The first building, the Family Care Clinic, is serving the local community in a practical and meaningful way. The Clinic exists to bridge the gap in Vanuatu’s limited health resources, by providing basic health and dental care, along with health education, to the surrounding communities, with a special emphasis on women and children at risk. By meeting these basic needs, we are putting God’s heart of compassion on display.
The second building, a multipurpose Training Centre, is used to provide training seminars and housing for Ni-Vans who are looking for mentoring and training in leadership development in the health-care and education sectors. Participants will stay for a few days for seminars but others in more specific programs will stay for several months at a time.
The third building is an Accommodation Centre. It has been set up to host visiting medical teams and teachers, who will be participating in the Training Centre’s activities. Additionally, it will provide housing for some of our long-term staff.
