YOSPIS has successfully trained 50 community health workers who will serve as frontline advocates for public health in their communities.
The three-week intensive training program covered:
- Basic health assessment
- First aid and emergency response
- Health education and communication
- Community mobilization
- Referral systems and follow-up
The graduates, representing 25 communities across Kano State, received certificates and starter kits containing essential supplies.
"These community health workers are the backbone of our grassroots approach," said the Training Coordinator. "They live in the communities they serve and understand the unique challenges their neighbors face."
Each trained worker is expected to reach at least 200 households in their first year of service.
The program was made possible through generous support from our international partners.
