The Jatapara community is doing well. This month we had a small parent meeting. In this, they were told about the courses and that they should send their children to school and encourage them to not be absent from classes.

In our weekly meetings, the deplorable condition of a village road leading to the Jaldhaka River was often discussed. During rainy season, this village road is difficult to walk due to heavy mud and waterlogging. Villagers take this path to reach the nearby Jaldhaka River and the agricultural land on the bank of the river.

Villagers of Jatapara were encouraged not to go bathroom in the open because they would pollute the environment. This will cause many diseases and problems. Their government started a program for villagers to build bathrooms in front of their homes. So, they were told to build a bathroom, but they were unable to do it on their own.

Since January, we have been working on income generation plans and we told the committee to come up with the most suitable and easy method. The committee had different plans and ideas regarding income generation but unanimously came to agree upon a Goat Loan Program.

This quarter, we focused on health awareness and encouraged villagers to return their children to school. Before, villagers were not sending their children to school because of school fees. Now they have come to value education in Dhoker Jhara Village and are happy. A man named *Sahil came and talked to school authorities to talk about admission all by himself.
