The purpose of this intervention is to build a foundation for advocacy and collaboration in Addis Ababa to decrease the unnecessary institutionalization of children due poverty and lack of access to resources. Our target groups are (1) young women, 18-25, with one child or expecting, and can be considered at risk of being separated from their child due to the above reason (2) organizations and institutions involved in family services and child protection in AA.
