Harpreet Singh, Anil Kumar Malhotra
Abstract :
Background: Launched on 2nd October, 1975, the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) Scheme is a response to the challenge of providing pre–school non–formal education on one hand and eaking the vicious cycle of malnutrition, morbidity, reduced learning capacity and mortality on the other. Objectives: To evaluate the infrastructure of anganwadi centers and to assess the supplies to anganwadi centers. Materials and Methods: An observational cross–sectional study conducted at 30 AWCs under Badagaon block in Jhansi district using a pretested structured questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using EpiInfo. Results: Deficiency in infrastructure and irregularity in supplies was observed at most of the centers. Conclusion: These deficiencies have a significant effect on utilization by the beneficiaries. The condition of supply does not appear to have improved over the years and it may work as a deterrent for the beneficiaries to attend the centers.
