Primary health care for chronic child malnutrition in the Totonicapán, Sololá and Quetzaltenango departments; creation of a network of voluntary health promoters

Direct assistance will be given to 400 of child malnutrition cases, overseeing their nutritional recovery, and providing them the appropriate treatment. The mothers of 400 families will be empowered to enhance their nutrition and health, so they can manage to break the cycle of malnutrition. This action will be completed with the training of 200 voluntary health promoters, who will build health care networks in the community. This effort will be reinforced by providing 10 scholarships in the area of auxiliary nursing for the community youth, in order to enable them to remain in the community.
