BPA has provided a number of facilities such as a community center, a three classroom nursery block, two hand pump boreholes, latrine facilities and solar lighting system at Jama Resettlement Camp . These facilities have significantly improved the living conditions of the settlers.

The relatively large number of children below the age of four years informed the decision of Bui Power Authority to build the nursery at the Jama Resettlement Camp. The nursery will ultimately  prepare the children for a bright future. The immediate advantage however of the nursery is that the mothers of these children can be free to farm when their children are in school.

  
   

The community center is located in the middle of the Resettlement Camp and has since, served a number of purposes such as a venue for community meetings, and also for recreational activities
