For years A.I.M. has provided food and medical care to those in need in Rocky Point, Mexico. We have longed for the day when we could better impact the cycle of poverty experienced by so many families in this city. We have looked for ways to help them have the means to provided for themselves. It has been our dream to do more than simply visit the city once a month...That day has come!

A.I.M. is currently building a community center in Rocky Point, called La Esperanza Para Nueva Vida (Hope for a New Life) Community Center. This center will provide day care, vocational training a medical and dental clinic staffed with doctors and dentists from Mexico and the U.S. and other services to provide for medical needs on a regular basis.

Initial Steps
In 2006 we setup a non-profit corporation and setup committees to design and build the center.  We also received initial monetary donations which allowed us to purchase land in Rocky Point.

Serving the Community
The center will include:

• Day Care: Offering mothers a safe place for their children, allowing them to work and better support themselves.

• Medical Clinic: Provides free medical care in memory of Dr. Egeu Barreta's many years of service to the poor in Mexico.

• Dental Clinic: Offering free dental care, a very big need in Rocky Point.

• Food Kitchen: Distribution of food as needed on a daily basis.

• Vocational Training: English as a second language, sewing and other training will improve job opportunities

• Library: Books of all types open to the neighborhood

• Family counseling and prayer: Available to all!

Staffing and Financing
A director from Rocky Point has been identified to lead the administration of the facility and it's services. The center will be staffed by local people, which will provide a source of income for their families.  Funding will come from sources in the USA and Mexico. Revenue will also be generated from the day care (mothers will pay a modest fee as they are able).
