STOP TB PROGRAM

JJK is working in Churchu Block of Hazaribag District for the achievement of the objectives of RNTCP. To stop and reverse back the infection of Tuberculosis, JJK is working with Catholic Health Association of India under AKSHYA Project. During the intervention JJK works for the mobilization about the awareness of the disease and DOTS Programme. The villagers are mobilized through meeting. During the year a total of 48 meetings were organized. The mobilization has resulted in the reduction of stigma of TB in the society. Due to the programme, we are able to trace out more than 100 TB patients. The project undertakes special influence upon the identification of the disease, regularization of DOTS and control of the discrimination practiced on the patients. Further, the beneficiaries are provided with the counselling services and mobilization of the locality against the stigma of the disease. The patients are provided with the regularization of DOTS Program.
