GLRA India addresses the challenges of tuberculosis (TB) in India by promoting early detection and treatment adherence, especially among marginalized communities. TB, a serious infectious disease affecting the lungs and other organs, remains a significant health concern in India despite nationwide accessibility to free diagnostic and treatment care. GLRA focuses on providing comprehensive TB services, including hospital-based care for extra-pulmonary TB patients and initiatives to improve TB awareness, diagnosis, and treatment adherence among truckers and vulnerable populations. Through projects like HOPE and NAI DISHA, GLRA collaborates with local partners to ensure access to TB services and promote hygiene and early treatment initiation, ultimately contributing to the reduction of TB morbidity and mortality in targeted communities.
