This qualitative study was conducted within a large cluster-randomized controlled trial that aimed to assess the impact of two early childhood development interventions in Choma, Kalomo, and Pemba Districts of Southern Province and Nyimba District of Eastern Province.Rural health centers in Zambia are public facilities that provide the surrounding populations (known as populations living in their catchment areas) with a wide range of primary health care services, including preventive and minor curative services. A varied cadre of community-based volunteers (CBVs) have been trained to provide health promotion services in maternal, newborn, and child health; water, sanitation, and hygiene; and/or infectious disease control over time.
