Increase access to sexual and reproductive health information and services for girls in both rural areas and urban slums.

In Kenya, one in five girls between the age of 15 to 19 years is either pregnant or has begun child bearing. Young girls in this age group account for almost 70% of all the pregnancies here in Kenya and most of these pregnancies are usually unintended forcing these girls to seek abortion services which are normally unsafe and dangerous for their health. It is estimated that 45% of women who have serious complications after procuring unsafe abortion services are young girls between the ages of 15 to 19 years.

Research has shown that girls living in urban slums and rural areas are at significant risk of early and unintended pregnancies. They are among the forgotten and marginalized population in this country. Limited access to sexual and reproductive health services and information is the major barrier to contraceptive use by adolescent girls in these areas.
