Organization Description: |
We provide healthcare as a human right to the poor in Sierra Leone. We do this through our community health work and high quality clinical care in Kono District. We believe TB care is one area in which we can have the most impact. We received a TB REACH Grant with which we have launched a contact tracing and community based TB screening project in March 2013 based around the work of fully trained Community Health Workers. |
