Maternal, newborn + child health
Our Maternal, Newborn, and Child Health Program is transforming health care for women and children by addressing critical gaps in maternal health, mental health, and oncology. We provide essential services including antenatal (ANC) and postnatal care (PNC), reproductive health education, psychosocial support, child wellness clinics, and cancer screenings. The program goes beyond physical health, addressing emotional and societal factors that influence well-being.
