About Us

Teenage Care Uganda

WHO WE ARE

Teenage Care Uganda was prompted by the high rates of teenage pregnancies, a high teenage mother mortality rate, increasing number of school drop outs, the increasing spread of HIV/AIDS among teenagers, a high number of children mothering fellow children at a tender age and domestic violence among those forced in early marriage. Many teenage expectant mothers come from impoverished households leading them to trade sex in exchange for food, money, and sanitary towels among other items. Younger teens’ pregnancies, in particular, are considered high risk because their bodies haven’t finished growing and are not yet fully mature. Teenage girls are more likely to have birth complication, dying in unsafe abortions and many dying while trying to give life..

OUR MISSION

We are dedicated to empowering teenage mothers, eliminating teenage pregnancy, and eradicating child marriages. We strive to provide comprehensive support, education, and resources to young mothers, while advocating for policies and programs that promote reproductive health, gender equality, and education for all

OUR GOAL

a) To advocate for actualization of the rights of teenage mothers.
b) To protect teenage mother’s rights at risk.
c) To build capacity of teenage mothers and structures for realization of their rights.
d) To empower teenage mothers to increase income to meet their needs and babies’ needs.
e) To re-integrate teenage mothers into their families and communities for support.

About Us

Teenage Care Uganda tackles high teenage pregnancy rates, maternal deaths, school dropouts, HIV spread, early marriages, and child mothers. Many expectant teens face poverty-driven risks, trading sex for essentials. Younger teens are especially vulnerable to birth complications, unsafe abortions, and mortality, as their bodies are not yet fully mature for childbirth.
