1 House girls Health and Life Skills Project (HELP) in Nairobi Beatrice Ochieng Family Health International Interagency Youth Working Group, 3 rd June 2010
2 Background Characteristics associated with FDWs vulnerability include: Low socioeconomic status Little to no time off (7% didn t get time off while 73% off part Sunday) Poor to fair knowledge of issues concerning RH and STI/ HIV Knowledge on a woman s fertile period was under 15% About half knew that a girl can get pregnant if has sex standing Sexually active > 45% had ever had sex, 12% had sex in exchange for money and 7% had been coerced to have sex Very poor knowledge of STI symptoms
3 The Intervention An intervention designed to reach FDWs Congregation sensitization Training of house girls 2.5 hours every Sunday for 15 Sundays Media campaign Intervention aimed at: Increasing knowledge and utilization of STI/ HIV and unintended pregnancy prevention services Creating awareness amongst community on the vulnerability of FDWs
4 Program features target population Female Domestic Workers (FDW)/ house girls years in Nairobi. Living in employers household
5 Purpose of intervention Project partnered with PCEA Bahati Piloted Dec Aug Expanded to 7 other churches in 2009 Two approaches used in expansion Training of house girls (Replication & Technical assistance) Peer education
6 Program pathways Community sensitization Training of house girls Self esteem & communication skills Sexual and reproductive health STI/ HIV prevention and protection Sexual Coercion, alcohol and drug abuse Personal savings & financial management Basic household security Basic first aid Media campaign
7 Program Reach 56 volunteers trained to offer HELP training 24 volunteers trained as counselors 277 house girls completed training 22 house girls trained as peer educators 910 house girls reached through peer education An estimated 27,830 house girls reached through media
8 Training outcomes Knowledge indicators Pre (n=210) % correct Post (n=153) P value* Definition of puberty <0.001 Definition of menstruation Definition of abstinence <0.001 Correctly identifies time during monthly cycle when a woman has greatest chance of becoming pregnant (mid cycle) Correctly identifies that a girl can get pregnant if she has sex standing up <0.001 Correctly identifies that it is possible to get pregnant if the boy withdraws before ejaculation (Yes) <0.001 *alpha=0.05
9 Training outcomes STI/ HIV Indicators Correctly defines: Pre (n=246) % Post (n=150) P value* STI <0.001 HIV <0.001 AIDS <0.001 Reports the following protective behaviors: Abstinence <0.001 Being faithful Condom use <0.001 *alpha=0.05?
10 Challenges Employers do not see direct benefit of program Some of the girls have been victims of sexual coercion Project ownership church vs. FHI/ KU Keeping the girls in the project Mobility across employers Long holiday breaks (December holidays) Meeting the demand Currently working with 8 churches Scaling up project beyond the Christian religion Engaging non FBOs and house girls bureau
11 Lessons learnt Church a critical partner Congregation members as lead trainers Support counselors an important component Mode of engagement with churches should foster ownership Employer buy in is critical and leads to greater outcomes Differentiating the project from a house help bureau
12 Programmatic implications & recommendations Leverage other HIV programs that reach youths Create linkages with SRH services STI/ HIV prevention and protection services Pregnancy prevention services Economic empowerment activities for the girls Small business to supplement salary Identify role models and champions among house girls Bigger question after girls have attended the training is what next? Where are the girls trained transitioning to? What of the employers?
