• Promoting Health Check-Up Clinics: Consistent health camps along with mobile and stationary clinics are the need of the hour.  This will help to screen adults and children for various diseases. Alo it will provide them a forum where community members can clear their inquiries and doubts about their own health.
• Focusing On Water And Sanitation: HPPI works to ensure and promote clean drinking water and improving sanitary conditions. This can be easily attained through the installation of key water points, toilets construction, revamping drainage systems, and mobilizing local residents for appropriate garbage disposal.
• Mother and Child Welfare: Women, young and adolescent girls’ self-help groups need training in maternal & child health issues.
