My Nonprofit Reviews

Operation ASHA has been successful in providing tuberculosis treatment to residents of the urban slums in India by locating treatment centers within convenient existing locations where patients would otherwise go, including temples, hair salons and the shops of traditional healers. By hiring counselors from the local population, launching its innovative biometrics fingerprint scanning system, and tying counselors’ pay to performance, Operation ASHA has discovered a model for tuberculosis treatment that – in its pilot areas – has resulted in a default rate of zero.
