Weekly growth in CHW participation
Attendance grows every single week.
We originally planned for a small cohort of thirty participants. But because this project belongs to the community, we do not turn anyone away. Whoever comes is welcomed with open arms.
Attendance has grown every single week, showing how hungry our people are for this vital knowledge.
