The town has four public schools, basic schools, and one private basic school. The Dodi Papase Senior High Technical school is the only second cycle institution in Dodi Papase. It houses students from various parts of the country and its students have performed strongly in the West African Senior School Certificate Examination.

Dodi Papase is located in the Kadjebi District of the Volta Region of Ghana. Vegetation is rich and its inhabitants are predominantly cocoa farmers. The community is composed of Christians, Muslims and traditionalists.

The Saint Mary Theresa Hospital is located in the town along the Papase-Amanfrom Road. It features a medical laboratory, dental and eye clinics and departments for outpatients, obstetrics, gynaecology and paediatrics. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, the hospital area hosts a market (referred to as the 'Dzimpapa' market) where the locals sell foods such as plantains and cassava, and fruit such as bananas, coconuts and oranges.

Two telecommunication networks currently operate in the town: MTN and Vodafone-Ghana. The road network from Kadjebi to Papase is well-functioning except the stretch from Ahamansu Junction to Papdfghjase township.
