The Prem Jyoti community hospital was started in December 1996 as a unique partnership between three major Indian mission agencies: the Friends Missionary Prayer Band (FMPB), the Evangelical Fellowship of India Commission on Relief (EFICOR), and the Emmanuel Hospital Association (EHA) to address the health needs of the Malto tribals - a diminishing tribal group, in the northeastern corner of Jharkhand. It focused mainly on their health needs, through a network of community health volunteers, peripheral clinics and a hospital. Emphasis was given on training and empowering the community to tackle health problems. Since 2011 the focus has broadened beyond health to address the social determinants of health.
