Healing the Wounds of War
Physician assistant Klubo Mulba (left) smiles at her former client, Surprise Otto, at JFK Hospital in Monrovia, Liberia. One of Liberia’s first mental health clinicians, Mulba received her training through a joint program between The Carter Center and the Liberia Ministry of Health and Social Welfare. On top of dealing with the aftermath of an Ebola epidemic, Liberia’s population continues to recover from a 13-year civil war that ended in 2003. Approximately 40% of the population is affected by PTSD (The Carter Center, 2013).
