Adolescence is considered as the nutritionally vulnerable period due to an increased demand for nutrients due to growth spurt. It has a far-reaching implication on their reproductive health in their later years. In Odisha, the prevalence of anemia among adolescent girls in general, has not been well documented. Hence, the present study investigated the prevalence of anemia and effect of nutrition education on anemic adolescent girls in a selected population of Odisha. Adolescent girls (12-17 years) who were studying in schools and colleges and residing in the study area for a minimum of six months were included in this study. Total numbers of 508 adolescent girls (12-17years) were screened for anemia. Considering its association with the lack of right knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP), it could be preventable. The objectives of the study were (1) to assess the Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) of the adolescent girls about Anemia, (2) To determine the association between the selected demographic variables and the level of KAP among the adolescent girls, (3) to analyse the effectiveness of the planned nutrition education of Anemia programme on knowledge, attitude and practice.
