The project showed remarkable progress in improving the health of women and under-five children, through community sensitizations and linkages with government facilities. This resulted in increase in institutional deliveries and drop in infant deaths in the villages.

There is also a shift in the community's health seeking behaviours – with the community demanding toilets and hand pumps for sanitation. The community sent its own volunteers to the project to learn more about health and sanitation issues.

People in the villages are utilising the government and project non-formal educational centres for their children, and are willing to pay for their services.  Adult women and adolescents girls also evinced interest in education.
