Executive Summary

MiyirKaab Recovery and Rehabilitation Center is the first and only licensed facility in Somaliland providing mental health and addiction treatment services. We offer community-based, culturally adapted care to individuals affected by substance use, trauma, and mental illness—especially those struggling with Qat addiction and severe substance use among returnees. Our mission is to expand access to gender-responsive care by building the first women’s rehabilitation center in the country, addressing a critical gap where no such services currently exist.
