Maternal and Child Health

We train Community Health Promoters who walk with mothers through pregnancy. They deliver antenatal education in households. The CHPs ensure mothers attend at least four clinic visits and embrace a balanced nutritional diet. They prepare families for delivery and arrange for transport when labour begins. They also visit within 48 hours after birth to check on the mother and baby. They track the baby’s growth every month for two years. They are trained to refer the mother or child immediately when danger signs appear. We support skilled birth attendance. We ensure that every enrolled mother delivers with a trained attendant who can manage complications. We equip health facilities with referral systems for emergencies. We follow up on every referral to ensure mothers and babies reach specialized care. We provide family planning counselling so that mothers can space pregnancies and recover fully between births.
