Program areas at JAM USA
Nutritional school feeding and agricultural development: Forafrika's nutrition intervention aims to improve and monitor child nutrition, improve and monitor maternal nutrition, promote child protection, early childhood care and primary school education,and promote healthcare through nutrition. Malnutrition, caused by a lack of food and poor nutritional content in the diet, continues to be the biggest killer of children in africa which is why Forafrika focuses on food and nutrition assistance. Most are children who Forafrika reaches through school feeding programs and clinics, or outposts where Forafrika does malnutrition screening and care for acutely malnourished children. Forafrika also implements community agriculture initiatives for diversification of diets and to increase self-sustainability.
Water, sanitation & hygiene: as a basic human right that brings life, far too many communities in africa are at risk of death or disease without access to safe drinking water.
