TBPeople Philippines Joins Forces with Sta. Rita, Pampanga in Active Case Finding to Combat Tuberculosis

Santa Rita, Pampanga, continues to set a shining example of community health management. Through effective collaboration with the 10 Barangays, TBPeople Philippines has joined an Active Case Finding (ACF) initiative to identify and address tuberculosis (TB) cases early. This partnership demonstrates the power of local governance in prioritizing health and encouraging active engagement at the grassroots level.

The ACF activities involved coordinated efforts across barangays, aiming to screen residents, raise TB awareness, and ensure timely referrals for those in need of treatment. Each barangay leader was pivotal in mobilizing their communities, showing an impressive commitment to monitoring health statuses and empowering individuals to be proactive about their well-being.

TBPeople Philippines extends its deepest appreciation to the Santa Rita local government for their dedication and effective governance. Together, these collective efforts contribute to a robust health system and bring the goal of ending tuberculosis closer to reality. This initiative underscores the importance of community-driven health interventions in building healthier, more resilient communities.
