BRAC’s community health worker program is among the largest in Uganda. BRAC trains women to provide basic care to pregnant mothers and children in their community and refer patients to nearby clinics for further care. With a focus on mothers and children under five, community health workers save lives and reach families in remote communities that otherwise would not have access to critical care.
