Her Royal Highness spent 2 days in Kenya to advocate for girls and women’s rights. Her visit included attending a TICAH organized session for Young Mothers to witness TICAH’s efforts to improve the rights of girls and women when it comes to sexual and reproductive health and rights. TICAH’s Young Mothers Program engages with adolescents and teenage mothers as a process of healing and empowerment. They learn about their Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights as well as ways to sustain themselves through income generating activities. The program values choice and leadership.
