We wanted to highlight our AID partner, Jan Swasthya Sahyog (JSS) for their flagship, Phuwari program that we support. Phulwaris are community run-creches that aim to tackle malnutrition in and provide day-care services for infants aged 6 months - 3 years in rural Chhattisgarh. JSS currently supports ~80 Phulwaris that cater to ~1200 children from some of the most marginalized communities. In addition to providing a safe, secure and stimulating environment for young children, these Phulwaris enable mothers to return to work, and older siblings to attend school, thereby providing support to families to combat the vicious cycle of poverty and ill health. The Phulwaris are one amongst the various health care services provided by JSS, which range from running a hospital in the village of Ganiyari, community health monitoring, diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases, and maternal health services.
