Mizan Aman is located in a mountainous and high rainfall area, 580 km away from Addis Ababa. It is the capital of the Bench Sheko district. The people who originally inhabit these lands were from the Bench tribe, but today it has become a place of union and peaceful coexistence between people of different tribes and cultures from all over the country.

The MCSPA apostolates consist in one Mother-and-Child Centre for 150 children aged 4 – 6 in Mizan and a Day Care Centre for 70 children from 3 to 5 in the village of Gacheb. In these two centres we provide pre-school education, two daily nutritious meals and growth monitoring with periodic medical check-ups to the children that attend our centres daily. We also support 50 children with food from a dining room created by the parish priest two years ago among the Menit people, 100 km from Mizan Tefri.
