- Paramount in the design concepts are notions of healing the body with the clinic and outreach facilities, developing the mind by educating children with real-life skills that provide outlets for their creativity, and freeing the spirit by providing a community where children can be a family.

- A spiritual space is placed in the center of the complex, providing a focal point and anchoring the complex of buildings.
Modules of dorms arranged in a semicircular fashion create a welcome and safe environment.

- The site is organized around the following concepts: family, health, education, religion and recreation. When united these concepts create a well rounded society, and work on this site to create a balanced life for the children and caregivers.

- Prominent symbols from CARE International and Maryknoll are used as inspiration in the overall site layout. CARE's circle of hands logo inspires a site design with an open center space for interaction. The design attempts to remove typical feelings of isolation associated with the disease.

- This community of buildings responds to the basic needs of all children: the need to be loved, healed, educated, and supported. Spaces facilitate familial type relationships among the residents as well as maintain strong ties with surrounding communities.

- The cruciform shape of the site plan creates an open, plaza-like space for recreation and gardening. The dormitory structures face inward toward a large central pavilion, allowing the residents to feel surrounded by family and caregivers.
