Description
Jagriti largely depends on female Community Motivators (CMs), women who are usually permanent inhabitants of their villages that help ensure easy access and smooth functioning of the program because they are able to obtain the trust of women and adolescents with whom they work. In each village, 2 SHG members and 1 CM were sensitized and trained to work with unmarried adolescent boys and girls (15-19 years) and married couple (15-30 years).
