Sexual and Reproductive Health

ISSUE
In the jagriks' community, girls don’t have a safe space to talk about physical changes in their bodies and therefore are unable to fully understand these changes which impact their mental health as well.

ROADMAP
Create spaces or forums where young people are given relevant information on SRH and they can talk openly about their issues and doubts; Organise sessions with ANM, ASHA and Gynaecologist where the girls can openly talk about sexual and reproductive health; Capacitate parents and community about the need for sexuality education for adolescents and its relevance.
