Public Health Specialist | Chronic Illness Advocate

Our Story

Pamoja began with quiet observations of patients weighed down not just by illness, but by isolation. In clinics and communities, we witnessed the silent battles: the fatigue that lingered long after treatments ended, the emotional toll of endless medications, and the loneliness of being misunderstood. What if there was a space where these struggles could be heard, held, and healed?

Out of that question, a vision was born. Guided by public health experience and a heart deeply moved by the resilience of chronic illness warriors, Pamoja Wellness Network was created. "Pamoja" means together and that’s our heartbeat. Here, stories are honored, not hidden. Support is shared, not spared. We exist to remind every member: your journey matters, and you don’t have to walk it alone.

💡Our Mission

To build a strong, supportive network that offers emotional connection, health education, and everyday coping strategies for people with chronic illnesses.

🌍 Our Vision

To become a leading voice and safe space for chronic illness warriors blending medical insight, cultural wisdom, emotional support.
