CAPTION: Dr Ram Chandra Soren, the area’s Medical Officer-in-Charge, notes that adolescents tend to be reluctant to visit their CHCs, preferring private clinics and 'quacks', because they assume that they will not get what they need there, or that there will be insufficient privacy. He assures them that they can get what they need from the ARSH clinic with full privacy and confidentiality. Changing awareness about this has resulted in significant positive changes, such as a marked reduction in septic abortions. LOCATION: Adolescent Reproductive and Sexual Health (ARSH) clinic, Ghatshila Community Health Centre (CHC), Purbi Singhbhum (district), Jharkhand (state), India. INDIVIDUAL(S) PHOTOGRAPHED: Dr Ram Chandra Soren.
