Antenatal & Neonatal Care Services


CenRID supports expectant mothers in accessing antenatal services, including the prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT) of HIV and mobilizes households and communities to immunize their children against preventable diseases.

Malaria & Other Tropical Diseases


Malaria remains a major global health catastrophe, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa. The region accounts for over 90 percent of both malaria cases and fatalities. CenRID's malaria eradication approach is focused on effective use and management of mosquito nets by increasing their availability and access. Traditional methods, including the African wormwood and lemon grass will also be promoted where applicable.

Breastfeeding


Breasfeeding is the best source of nutrients for infants during the first 6 months after birth. CenRID will conduct high-quality mass media campaigns to promote exclusive breastfeeding and complementary feeding to reduce the risk of respiratory illness, stunting, diarrhea, and malnutrition among children.

HBC and CBR Services

CenRID utilizes the Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) and the Home Based Care (HBC) approach to empower disabled children and their families to overcome and mitigate the impacts of the pervasive stigmatization and discrimination of physical and mental disabilities. HBC activities will also provide psychological, physical, and social care to orphaned children infected with HIV and AIDS.
