- Mobile Medical Services: Conducted 9 medical sessions via a mobile unit staffed with a general physician and a nurse, providing primary health care directly to the communities.
- Youth Empowerment: Initiated training for 50 adolescents, children, or relatives of PRODEC clients on sexual and reproductive health, strengthening their personal planning skills.
- Community Impact:
- Conducted 541 NCD screenings, with 180 women receiving primary health care.
- Institutional Collaboration: Provided technical assistance to 6 Ministry of Health promoters to enhance NCD detection in rural areas.
This initiative underscores ASAPROSAR’s commitment to improving the health and well-being of rural communities by promoting education and accessible health services, paving the way for a better quality of life.
