Socio-Economic Package to OVC plays mega role in Treatment outcomes and wellbeing<\/strong><\/p>\n

Through ICYD, socio-economic support is extended to Orphans and Vulnerable children to boost their social status and nutrition. A total of 1,854<\/strong> (209Males, 1645Females) household heads were supported with seeds and established kitchen gardens.<\/p>\n

Eight (8)<\/strong> demonstration gardens were established; 4<\/strong> in health facilities like Kitebi HC, ROM Banda, Family Hope and another 4<\/strong> in communities around Kyebando, Kanyanya and Ggaba parishes.<\/p>\n

Caregivers use the vegetables to improve their household\u2019s nutrition and also earn some income from vegetable sales which enables them to meet other basic needs like scholastics, and transport to health facilities.<\/p>\n

With savings from vegetable sales, caregivers are able to join Village Savings and Loans Associations (VSLAs). A total of 184 <\/strong>of the caregivers bounced back to VSLAs where they were able to get loans and alternative skills that enabled them to start other businesses. The cycle above is a means to improve beneficiary financial wellbeing and adherence to treatment<\/p>\n
