Poor living conditions and inadequate health services often results in a disproportionately high number of prisoners suffering from tuberculosis. This project targeted this vulnerable population by conducting mass awareness campaigns, tuberculosis education sessions, and screening. Additionally, counseling and treatment sessions was arranged for all prisoners living with TB. An efficient tracking system was established for those with active TB infection who were released from prison to ensure that they continued their treatment. This grantee played a major role in reducing TB incidence by about 12% in their region.
