Tunduru girls are facing with challenge of early pregnancy as the result most of them drop out from school and remain uneducated and take responsibilities of child caring at the age of too young,this situation influence them to have intimacy with men who are older than them, and some enter into marriage at early age.
The impact of being adolescent mother are
lack of education as one of human rights
Her child lack parental care from father as responsible father reject the pregnant
adolescent being engaged in adultery responsibilities
Family member humiliate her
sex harassment
Community member mistreat her and her child.
I have manage to mobilize 30 girls who are adolescent mothers to form group of 10 each and through those groups they have manage to access soft loans from local government.
In order to curb the situation a joint hand is requested from this community so that this young mothers will be free from stress
