What does this approach entail?
• Cadres of volunteers who can deliver TTC include CHWs, care group / women’s group volunteers or other existing health voluntary cadre.
• TTC home visitors make a series of visits to households where there are pregnant women, and through infancy, organizing all of the 7-11 messages to be communicated at the most appropriate times, using a counseling and dialogue-based approach.
• Caregivers are provided with information, counseling and support to promote practice of a host of critical health and nutrition-related behaviors.

Step 2: Problem Story and Guiding Questions (Guiding Qs lead users from analyzing as outsiders, to personalizing the issues)
Step 3: Positive Story and Guiding Questions (Guiding Qs lead users from understanding the benefits of the actions, to personalizing)
Step 4: Dialogue and “Negotiation”, using Household Handbook
