Women Health Project

The Women Health Project by Care India Welfare Trust is committed to enhancing the health and well-being of women in underserved and marginalized communities. Women's health often gets overlooked, with many facing obstacles like limited access to healthcare, cultural stigmas, lack of awareness, and inadequate resources. Our project aims to tackle these issues by offering comprehensive healthcare services, education, and support to women of all ages, focusing on maternal health, reproductive health, menstrual hygiene, mental health, and the prevention of common health problems.

A major aspect of the Women Health Project is maternal and child health, where we emphasize providing prenatal care, safe delivery practices, postnatal care, and family planning education. By offering regular health check-ups, nutritional support, and health education workshops, we ensure that women have access to the necessary care during pregnancy and after childbirth, which helps reduce maternal and infant mortality rates in rural areas. We also advocate for safe childbirth practices and provide training to midwives and healthcare workers in these communities to enhance the quality of care.

Beyond maternal health, our program also focuses on reproductive health, raising awareness about menstrual hygiene, contraception, and the prevention of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). We distribute free sanitary napkins, hygiene kits, and educational materials to ensure that women have the resources they need to maintain good menstrual health. By breaking taboos and providing accurate information, we empower women to take charge of their reproductive health and make informed decisions.
Our Women Health Project also prioritizes mental health, which is often overlooked in discussions about women’s well-being. We provide counseling sessions, stress management workshops, and support groups designed to assist women in dealing with mental health issues like anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We believe that mental health is just as crucial as physical health, and we strive to foster an environment where women can seek assistance without the fear of stigma or discrimination.

Additionally, the project emphasizes preventative care by increasing awareness of common health concerns that affect women, including breast cancer, cervical cancer, and hypertension. We host free health check-up camps, screenings, and awareness campaigns to educate women on the importance of early detection and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
