HEALTH

For the promotion of basic health care facilities and improvement in the status of the mother and child health care the organization undertook intervention in the areas of reproductive and child health. We believe in preventive aspect of health care rather than curative aspect. Many more indigenous methods of preventive aspects are often applied and used by the poor in our project villages particularly the tribal people. They don’t have sufficient means of curative measure unless they use their own traditional wisdom; sometimes they use their wisdom when they get affected. Organization’s interventions are “Preventive Health Care” through organizing several immunization camps and sensitizing the government health facilities. At present the organization is undertaking following program.
