About
A healthy start to life is the birth right of every child. Especially, the first
five years, as it ensures that both the child and mother get a nourishing,
fulfilling and disease free life. But sadly the reality is far from being
perfect. The truth is, growing up healthy continues to be a distant dream for
thousands of children.
The plan is to change this. To make sure that 2,81,045 children across
CRY-supported projects get to live a healthy life. Your participation is
imperative. All you have to do is support and take part in the Get Healthy +
Give Healthy initiative. And give children a healthy, happy and fulfilling
childhood.

The CRY Approach
By creating awareness within communities to address maternal, neonatal, child
health needs; informing parents about healthcare services; finding solutions to
overcome challenges and accessing these services, CRY and its grassroots
partners work towards ensuring the local public healthcare and the anganwadi
centres have the necessary infrastructure and qualified health workers to
provide effective delivery of quality maternal and child health care.
Our approach include:
• Restart now defunct healthcare centres or demand new ones for the village.
• Support health workers in providing pre-natal care, adequate food and timely
health checkups for pregnant woman.
• Encourage and educate pregnant woman to stay healthy, so that the vicious
cycle of malnourishment gets stalled.
• Make parents and communities aware about the need for timely immunisation
through street plays, women group meetings, posters, wall writings, etc.
• Demand and ensure adequate health workers at Anganwadis i.e. - ASHA workers,
Integrated Child Development Scheme (ICDS) workers, Auxiliary Nursing Midwifes
(ANM)
• Organise a monthly Mamta Divas/ Motherhood Day to spread awareness about the
life saving benefits of immunisation and facilitate checkups for mothers and
children.
