Morning Star Development provides training and services to the Afghan people to empower individuals and transform communities. Our training and services can be categorized into four categories: 1) Medical Service & Training; 2) Leadership Development; 3) Community Development; and 4) Displaced Afghans.

Morning Star Development's sole focus for over 25 years is Afghanistan. During this crisis, we continue to train and support Afghans who live in Afghanistan. We also have Afghan resettlement programs in India, the USA, and now in new places (Tajikistan). We work with whole Afghan families inside and outside of Afghanistan.

In a country torn by decades of war, millions of Afghans are easing their suffering through the use of opium and heroin. Children will often become addicted to these harmful drugs through their parents. New Life Drug Addition Center is a one-year drug rehabilitation program that seeks to redeem men from their destructive lifestyles and empower them by teaching job skills so they can be restored to their families and society.
Afghanistan has the highest rate of infant mortality in the world. Morning Star is committed to saving mothers and babies and promoting life that brings health, joy, and a future for all. The Birth Life Saving Skills (BLiSS) program is saving babies daily in the battle to end preventable, maternal, newborn and child mortality in Afghanistan. Where BLiSS is implemented we experience an 80% improvement in mother and baby health.
