Response rate was 100%
Community based interventions were targeted at training SMAGs who included CHW and TBAs on maternal health skills
*The total study participants was 551 at baseline, 550 at midline and 551 at endline
**Adjusted for woman’s age, marital status, ever attended school, women’s literacy, and distance to the facility and level of education
# Baseline data for SMAGs was not collected as these were not yet trained
