The Community Epidemic and Pandemic Preparedness Program (CP3) is a health initiative project aimed at strengthening Public Health in Communities through community-based surveillance (CBS)and response to health alerts. It equips Community Health Promoters (CHPs) with the skills and knowledge to recognize, report, and react to outbreaks at the grassroots level, enhancing early warning and preparedness systems.
Today marked the final day of CP3 CBS feedback sessions in Transmara West and East a key activity that strengthened community-based surveillance.
The sessions refreshed CHPs on Community case definitions, reporting unusual cases, and provided a platform to share challenges and success stories since project inception. The quarterly forums were impactful, with CHPs actively contributing feedback to improve reporting systems.
Additionally, the sessions introduced the Kenya Red Cross Society’s training and membership opportunities, empowering CHPs to better address community health concerns.Kenya Red Cross SocietyAmerican Red Cross @60
