Community Clinic Policy Brief

Community Clinics (CCs) have the potential to play a central role to achieve Sustainable Development    Goals 2 and 3. Community Clinics provide a range of integrated health, nutrition, and family planning services. The effectiveness of these clinics depends  upon properly functioning local government institutions. World   Vision's experience shows that services at Community Clinics are inconsistent. Since 2015, USAID's Nobo Jatra project, implemented by World Vision Bangladesh has sought to enhance local government capacity and accountability of Community Clinics in Khulna and Satkhira through a series of interventions targeted at the services most critical to health and nutrition of mothers and children.
