SFH VISION
 
 By 2011, Society for Family Health will demonstrate significant impact on HIV/AIDS, family planning, malaria and diarrhoeal diseases in Nigeria, with a consistent focus on the poor.  Using evidence based behaviour change communications, our key achievements will include:


SFH’s Disability Adjusted Life Years
(DALYS) double (with particular reference to the areas of SFH services and interventions).

50% of SFH’s programme beneficiaries are the poor.

50% of rural pregnant women and children under 5 sleep under long lasting insecticide treated nets in at least two focus states.

Modern contraceptive prevalence rate increases from 11% to 16%.

Consistent condom use among high risk groups increases by 20%.

As a result of the successes recorded by the patent medicine vendors in reaching grassroots groups with product access all over SFH Nigeria regions; Abuja region sales team has employed their services to reach members of the Gwagwalada and Karu communities.
Sales Representatives in these areas regularly conduct PUR demonstrations to several groups within the community. Recently, information on Safe Water Systems (SWS) using the PUR product from SFH Nigeria was also delivered through sales representatives who conducted a series of presentations during the National Association of Patent Proprietary Medicine Vendors (NAPPMED) monthly meeting.


A detailer from the Women’s Health Project (WHP) also used this opportunity to educate the attendees on the Pregnon family planning product. Both activities were very well accepted by the group evidenced by the huge patronage for the two products at the end of the presentation.
