Community-based Family Planning Model for Faith-based Health Networks

This document summarizes the methodology, objectives, and activities of a capacity building strategy for community-based family planning provision in church-based health networks like Christian Health Associations. The strategy was designed by Georgetown University’s Institute for Reproductive Health in collaboration with the Christian Health Association of Kenya (CHAK). Five components have been identified as critical to implementing a successful community-based family planning program within African Christian Health Associations. These five components are described in detail in the report and include lessons learned from an experience implementing the project in Kenya.
