PROGRAM

Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights

“Our Bodies, Our Choices”

Helping young people and adults learn about their bodies, establish healthy relationships, access safe services and protect their rights.

Problem

There is limited access to accurate and reliable information on sexual and reproductive health available among Kenyan young people that can empower them to make informed choices and decisions. This is compounded by barriers to access reproductive health services.

Limited access to information, safe SRHR commodities and services contribute to unwanted pregnancies, teen pregnancies, unsafe abortion, sexual violence, early marriage, school dropouts and sometimes death as a result of unsafe reproductive health choices. The policy environment does not favor full access to safe and timely SRHR information and services.

Intervention

TICAH knows that information is power.  We provide young people, women and girls with accurate information on SRHR and referrals to safe and reliable services. We work with like minded, reliable partners to advocate for the enactment and implementation of SRHR policies that ensure young people, women and girls access safe and reliable information and services to enable them make informed choices and decisions.
