Bal-Jeevan Suraksha
Learning from the failures of ICDS, YCSSW team have designed “Bal Jeevan Suraksha Programme” in which malnourished children, their mother/caregivers attend 12 days nutrition educational and rehabilitation ptogramme. During the session, mothers are given nutritional education while children are fed with 400 grams of supplementary food daily.
Mothers/Caregivers learn positive behavioural practice during the session which they practice at home. As a result of which, children attain normal growth.
This project was lounched in the year 2014,in which BSW third year students took part. This initive received much appreciation from ICDS dept. A total of 40 children have been successfully rehabilitated in Satara by implementing BalJeevan Suraksha initiative.
