Child Headed Households Support Project

--- Welcome to Our Child Headed House Hold Support Page

Of the 7.2 million households in the country, about 28,800 are child-headed and face severe financial constraints that quite often push them to drug and substance abuse, transactional sex and involvement in crime. A majority of the Teen Moms supported by WWF were in situations of Child Headed Households (CHHs) during the pandemic lockdowns. Many of the children are living in poverty and hunger, exacerbated by COVID-19 lockdowns, the AIDS epidemic, which has had a serious impact on rural Teso communities. The CHH is a common reality in Teso Sub Region which has largely has the characteristic of post-conflict situations which disintegrated family set-ups and increased the ravaging effects of HIV/AIDS.
