Welcome to The Open Door! Jim Hanink here again, even though our producer, Sebastian
Mahfood, is again in Italy. Today, we have an opportunity to learn about a remarkable initiative
for vulnerable people, especially children, in Uganda. The Site for Community Services
Programme (SCOSP) integrates education, health care, and human rights advocacy. Our special
and welcome guest is Michael Sabiiti. Our questions include the following.

1. Mr. Sabiiti (Michael, if I may), as its founder, you have lived the history of your organization. How did it begin?
2. What is the legal status of an approved Non-Governmental Agency (NGO)?
3. SCOSP has a distinctive outreach program to serve albino children. Could you please explain for us the position of albino people in Uganda?
4. How has COVID-19 impacted your work?
5. What has your experience been with refugees from the strife in Congo?
6. What financial resources can you draw on? Have your “gofund.me” efforts been fruitful?
7. In addition to your service commitment, you help organize safaris. What does this involve, and why are safaris important for Uganda?
8. Catholic priests from Uganda have served in my home parish in Inglewood, California. What is the role of the Catholic Church in Uganda?
9. Have you ever visited the United States?
10. Where do you see SCOSP in ten years’ time?
