Every child seen, every mother followed up

Immunisation, cervical cancer prevention and sexual and reproductive health delivered through the community structures families already use - so no child is lost to a missed appointment.

Programme overview

Deliver integrated preventive and community-based health services that improve access to care and reduce preventable deaths among mothers, children and adolescents.

VHTs and CHEWs know which child missed a dose and which mother has not been seen since her last antenatal visit. We equip them to act on that knowledge: track defaulters, follow up at household level, refer complications early and keep adolescent health on the agenda.

Three priorities

Immunisation & defaulter tracking

Community registers, household follow-up and stakeholder meetings with community actors so every defaulting child is traced and immunised.

Cervical cancer prevention

HPV vaccination awareness, screening referral and community education on early signs, with district health teams.

Sexual & reproductive health

Adolescent-friendly information, family planning referral and maternal health education that respects local realities.

School health

Child safety, violence prevention and HIV prevention sessions run with teachers in Wakiso and Kampala schools.
