Voices from the Community
Real stories from the people PHIC works with, in their own words.
“At 22 years old, I had already given birth to two children within a space of two years, and I felt that was too much on me — my life was less productive. When I met a friend who had attended the PHIC health camp, he shared with me the information he had learnt there, like how to prevent unintended pregnancies. I made a decision to go and get family planning at the health centre. Now I am being productive, making bags and other items to provide for my children, because of this information.”
