Juliah, who is also the President of Mutiara GRS, said the programme would also be a platform to related parties, especially LPPKN to know closely problems or community needs at the grassroots level, especially women outside the city.
She said various services are provided in the programme, including a family education, LPPKN Mobile Family to provide clinical advice, health screenings and free mammogram screening for eligible women.
