Study on Reducing Impaired Growth in Children
This study, called "Stunting and Targeting Reduction of Impaired Growth in Kids Effectively," is looking at a community-based program designed to help children aged 1 to 5 years who are experiencing stunting (impaired growth) or are at risk for it. The program involves nutrition screening, education for families, providing nutritional supplements, and ongoing support. Researchers want to see if this program is practical to implement and how well it helps children's growth over time. You could be eligible if your child is between 1 and 5 years old, has stunting or is at risk, was born full-term, and lives in a study area served by Children International centers. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.
