RHSTEP (Reproductive Health Services, Training and Education Program)

RHSTEP is a leading national non government organization providing sexual, reproductive and general health services to women, men, adolescents and children for almost three decades. We are continuing our contributions in reducing maternal mortality and morbidity especially due to septic abortion through establishing Safe MR support thus reduces unsafe abortion across the country.

RHSTEP is the only NGO in Bangladesh permitted by the Government of Bangladesh to perform its activities in public hospitals.

Our Goal:
is to contribute towards improving SRH status of women and adolescents and thus complement the GOB's National Health Program targets of reducing MMR and other SRH hazards in Bangladesh.
