On June 22, a group of local doctors will spend a week of vacation in a rural Honduran village called Atima, bringing desperately needed medical care and public health advances to the villagers.

The Organization for Community Health Outreach organizes the trip; it's happened every year since members of Baltimore's Church of the Redeemer flew down to provide assistance after Hurricane Mitch devastated Honduras in 1998.

Emergency physician Dr. John Wogan will travel on the mission later this month. Today, he tells Sheilah how much progress Atima has made since the hurricane.
