Project Launch: 2-16-16

This project will permit 12 volunteer community midwives in Chichigalpa to participate in maternal and women’s health workshops in order to expand their scope of work to include general health and preventive care. The workshops will be led by experienced midwives and Ministry of Health officials and will focus on maternal health, family planning, infant nutrition, and HIV prevention. Following the workshops, the participating midwives will return to their own communities and lead workshops for community members.
