Bathrooms Are Very Beneficial
April 3, 2024
I have been doing Transformational Community Development (TCD) lessons on eating a balanced diet, Wellness, and disease prevention. This month, I have started to share knowledge about using local herbal remedies for blood pressure and blood sugar control. I have also shared about the powerful benefits of Neem (an herb) for weight loss and diabetes.
At present, I am trying to educate people about the use of toilets and bathrooms. Only six families have a bathroom, with most other families taking a bath in an open area. People are also not aware of the benefits of using a latrine. After the TCD lessons, one family is building a bathroom and latrine. She was an ICDS (Integrated Child Development Services) worker but didn’t have a toilet.
Thank you,
