The Organization envisions a world where women and children do not suffer from preventable health conditions. We believe that every mother and each child deserves an equal start to a healthy life. We support the public health system deliver solutions at scale, to improve maternal and child health outcomes, by partnering with government and communities. Interventions of The Organization follow two closely integrated paths: to help the government system deliver better quality health care to the community and to support the community to mobilize and seek better health outcomes.

We are a young, energetic, and passionate team, working across 8 districts, 38 blocks, 5,700 villages, with 8,800 FLWs, and reaching 379,000 women and 650,000 children in central India. Over the next few years, we see ourselves spreading across multiple locations in India to implement our solutions and to create an impact at scale.

Role Summary:

The Organization is working towards Maternal and Child Health and Nutrition in select districts of M.P. The program is aimed at improving the Maternal Child Health and Nutrition indicators. One of the key interventions is the facility enhancement and capacity building of the ANMs and staff nurse posted at the designated delivery points for pre- and post-delivery and newborn care. It also includes capacity building of the frontline workers (ANMs, ASHAs and AWWs) based on the 1000 days construct (For example – ANCs, HRP identification and management, immunization, growth monitoring etc.). We invite public health and development sector professionals to be part of this endeavour.
