One of the most personal parts of a girl's body is her reproductive system, and this is also the part of her body that will affect her life for decades. Between hormones, bleeding, and breast development, not to mention brain development, young girls have a lot to incorporate into their budding adulthood.
For your daughter, starting her period during puberty can be mysterious and scary.
But it doesn't have to be!
The Furaha program  brings together small groups of girls ages 9 -13 talking openly and honestly about menstruation and their bodies. The program helps girls to:
  • Learn about the structure of their reproductive system and how hormones support it
  • Gain confidence in their bodies and themselves
  • Join a "safe place" to ask questions and learn from each other
Facilitated by health experts and youth counselors , Furaha program workshops are currently on session all through August 20th. For info and registration, call +254746622833
