On Friday 28th September 2018, our team led by the Founding Director Ms. Daisy Kosgey Mugiira held a consultative forum with the local administration of Chepseon Location in Kericho County.
The agenda of the meeting was to seek involvement of the local administration in addressing the issue of teenage pregnancies.
Teenage/Adolescent pregnancies refers to pregnancies carried by adolescent girls especially between the age of 10 and 19years. In Kenya, the rates of teenage pregnancies are high at 18% which translates to 1 in every 5 girls being expectant or being a teenage mother.
