Amal (right), a nurse, tends to a patient at the Mohsen Al-Kaylah Health Center in the Tuban District of the Lahj Governorate in Yemen in January 2022. After Amal and a colleague completed a USAID-funded training program focused on the integrated management of childhood illness in December 2021, the health center began offering child health services, and subsequently treated 950 children and newborns within two months. “As a mother, I consider any child as my own,” said Amal, one of nearly 500 health workers from 90 health facilities in Yemen trained with USAID support. “So I was overwhelmed with happiness when I knew that I now had the skills to treat them.”
