CommunityHealth Kit

Toolkits are a useful job aids for health workers. They provide quick access and reminders to relevant information the health worker needs as they carry out their work in providing quality counsellings and services to their clients.

This toolkit was written and curated by the African Radio Drama Association as part of their Community Health Matters project, with funding provided by the TY Danjuma Foundation as part of their Community Health Initiatives funding stream which provides funding for initiatives that strengthen and consolidate rural health care service and delivery systems.

The aim of the Community Health Matters project is to build the capacity of Community Health Extension Workers (CHEWs) to improve maternal and child health in 2 Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Taraba State. The carefully designed and packaged content is intended to build the capacity of CHEWs in Takum and Bali LGAs to provide quality counseling services to the community and should be used during health education and counseling sessions with clients and community members.
