  About REACH

The REACH Program in Afghanistan
 

Afghan mother with three kids In May of 2003, Management Sciences for Health was awarded a three-year contract to improve access to basic health services for Afghans and to strengthen Afghanistan's health systems.

The goal of Rural Expansion of Afghanistan's Community-based Healthcare (REACH) program is to improve Afghan maternal and child health, focusing on the health of women of reproductive age and children under five years. The REACH program is ensuring that an estimated 7.1 million people throughout Afghanistan have access to a basic package of health services and focuses on the delivery of crucial health services to Afghans in rural and underserved provinces.
