CAPTION: Dr Ram and his colleagues are forming what they call a 'chain of information', so that even if families don’t allow their youth to seek out the services they need in person, friends can pass on the news about what the ARSH clinic can provide. He observes that another problem is that most families think only of educating their boys on what they need, and just think about marrying their girls off. So it’s important to ensure that girls don’t fall through the net. These four girls are part of the discussion group that’s been established in Ghatshila. They have asked Dr Ram to come to the community college where they are studying nearby and take sessions for all the adolescent girls there to ensure they will then access the services they need. They therefore serve as the link between the college and Dr Ram. LOCATION: Adolescent Reproductive and Sexual Health (ARSH) clinic, Ghatshila Community Health Centre (CHC), Purbi Singhbhum (district), Jharkhand (state), India. INDIVIDUAL(S) PHOTOGRAPHED: From left to right: Tulika Shit, Sujata Shit, Rakhi Shit and Atosi Shit.
