چکیده

Interim progress in an integrated family planning and community health program instituted in 2 villages in Tanzania, compared to a control village, is presented. The target villages, in Masama and Arusha China, consisting of 10,000 and 8000 people, and the control village of Kisiki with 10,500 were all near Moshi town. The control village was provided with contraceptives, but given no integrated program activities. The program activities consisted of mass examination and deworming of adults and children, nutritional assessment of school children, latrine census and construction, health education, family planning and income generating projects. Traditional birth attendants as well as health clinics provided family planning education and services. Peoples' health committees helped with the latrine surveys and income projects. Some of the popular income projects were raising all animals, especially rabbits, selling condoms, growing vegetable seedlings and making dresses, mats and baskets. Attendance at the clinic for family planning services grew from 20 to 76% of fertile women in Masama, from 25 to 103% in Arusha China, but remained at around 25-30% in the control village.
