Hand in Hand: Changing Lives Together

In communities where long-held beliefs and customs harm people’s health, what choice does a young woman have? How can women like Teresa and Rosalina pull their families out of poverty and keep their children healthy and fed, when each new pregnancy could kill them? In 2009, Pathfinder joined the government of Mozambique to launch one of our largest projects, Strengthening Communities through Integrated Programming (SCIP), supported by USAID. This issue of Pathways explores Pathfinder's SCIP project and our success in reaching over four million Mozambicans with sexual and reproductive health services.
