Thank you for your commitment to the CARE Women's Network - New York. Your gift will go toward saving and improving the lives of women and babies during and after pregnancy in Bihar, India. 

Why Bihar? Fifty-five percent of the 119 million people in Bihar live below the poverty line. The state is so populous that it can easily swing national and global health outcomes. The infant and maternal mortality rates are staggering, while also preventable if basic care is provided.

What are we doing? In partnership with CARE, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and local government, we’re overhauling the state’s healthcare system. This includes creating Sick Newborn Care Units, offering intervention when there is a low birthweight and access to blood banks. We’re implementing mentorship programs for nurses focused on high-risk pregnancies, as well as introducing mobile technology to reach remote districts and training community health workers making home visits. 

 

About Us
The CARE Women’s Network - New York (CWN-NY) is committed to helping CARE tackle the underlying causes of poverty so that people can become self-sufficient. Because poverty disproportionately affects women and children, we are focused on CARE’s work empowering women in the developing world to create social change.
