We train in partnership with World Vision, AMREF & Ministry of Health the community and women on reproductive health and sanitation.
We also mobilise and sensitise the youth on HIV/AIDS & STIS and through life skilled and mentorship programs, we emphasis on behavior change among the young people. With the help of Maralal Catholic Dioces Peace Program, we offer technical support to the community especially during tribal clashes in the community where children and women are left alone without food, water or houses. We also take clients through counseling especially those who are traumatised and stigmatised from various diseases. We also do volunteer school counseling and reach also to the disabled children in the community. |
