The epistemological salutogenic health model of General Resistance Resources (GRR) and Sense of Coherence (SOC) was applied. A health promotion model was devised in accordance to the GRR and SOC. A health system intervention was also planned to improve health indicators. Results: The family had a better approach towards heath and preparedness towards the institutional delivery of the child. The children were immunized with appropriate documentation. The success story of the family turned the migrant community to act as a social support group for positive health.
