Protecting Mothers & Children

Maternal & Child Health

Expectant mothers, neonates and children below the age of 5 years make up a population that is the most vulnerable to infectious diseases such as diarrhea, respiratory ailments like pneumonia and tuberculosis, malaria and HIV. This is explained by recent historical data on morbidity and mortality rates that are attached to ULISO’s host communities. It is for this reason that we have given specific focus on maternal and child health.
