About the Course

Purpose: Since the late 1990s, the Reproductive and Child Health (RCH) services in India were being delivered through public facilities under a project mode. Eventually they were taken under the flagship of the National Rural Health Mission (NRHM). The RCH services are crucial in the context of achieving social development goals of the Five Year Plan (FYP) as well as the Millennium Development Goals (MDG).
