The Kafwa community health workers I trained 17 years ago are still faithfully serving as volunteers. On Mondays and Fridays they visit home-found clients and on Friday’s they hold a baby-weighing clinic for children under 5. Our visits with the District Ministry of Health (DMOH) officers verified that these services are indispensable to augment the insufficient services provided by the government. We are now in discussions with the DMOH to arrange for training of additional community volunteers in the near future.
