Welcome!

Thank you for visiting the Salybia Mission Project (SMP), a non-profit organization devoted to providing much needed medical care to the indigenous population of Dominica. The Carib Indians (also known as the Kalinago) are a unique people habituated in the northeast corner of this eastern Caribbean nation. With the assistance of medical students from Ross University School of Medicine and devoted medical personnel from the area, SMP strives to enrich the lives of the disadvantaged Carib people.

Aside from recurring clinic visits by students, SMP is currently involved in fundraising events, a nursing scholarship, construction of a new clinic for the Caribs, annual Health Fairs, a Women’s Health Initiative, and more. Please feel free to explore this site for more information on the various aspects of SMP.
