Evaluation Design:
Cross sectional – infants aged less than six months were enrolled on an on-going basis between 1997-1999; 242 infants 5-11 months old were included in this analysis (173 infants < 6 months of age at baseline formed intervention group, 69 infants who reached 12 months prior to the intervention formed control group); data collected monthly until the child reached 24 months of age
