Supporting Optimal Infant, Young Child and Maternal Nutrition and Health in Jordan: An Evaluation of the CHN Program

"The Community Health and Nutrition supported by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) will be implemented by an international NGO, FHI 360. The goal of the Community Health and Nutrition (CHN) program is to improve the nutritional status of pregnant and lactating women (PLW) and children under the age of two years in the target areas of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. The program will fulfill this goal by implementing activities to support improvements in IYCF practices, increase adoption of optimal family planning practices and maternal, infant and young child nutrition (MIYCN) practices, and by improving health care provider support for proper IYCF practices and use of modern contraceptive methods."
