Health/Youth-friendly services

Mission Uganda provides both clinical and non-clinical services to a cross-section of target clients through static health sites and community outreaches to partner health facilities. These sites offer platforms for the provision of youth-friendly services like guidance & counselling, dialogues on menstrual hygiene, adolescent sexual reproductive health rights, HIV Counselling & testing, cervical cancer screening, family planning counselling and provision of services, and training on other adolescent sexual reproductive health services, conducting referrals of HIV patients to access services etc. These interventions have been made possible through collaborations with private and other government facilities through the commitment of service providers/ health workers in the provision of services and Youth Facility Volunteers (YFVs) as well as Community Based Health Volunteers (CBHV) in offering health education and conducting referrals for service access by the youth, HIV patients & women of sexual reproductive health ages for family planning counselling and services.
