Notes
Irene visited kagulu to follow up on the lesson about family planning that she had taught after being requested by the stoves staff working in that community. Irene started with a review of the previous lesson which involved hearing different views from the members about family planning,benefits,the different types,and the time period for each method used. After sharing the different views Irene asked the members if there is anyone who took a step to inquire,and take up a method of their choice, several women raised their hands and were happy to inform her that they have no worries about getting pregnant, and are now concentrating on looking after their families though some had a few complaints and issues they had to deal with

Yes, women have visited the health facilities to receive different methods of family planning and several of them have gotten long term methods and those with more than 7 children opted for the permanent method.
Program Critical Needs
More sensitization about different government programs to the village members because most of them are ignorant about the government programs for example the immunization schedule and benefits.

Several women came up to ask about different health problems and solutions as regards their own health.
