Additionally, we aim to share best practices and learn from other participants; provide insights on various issues, challenges, and innovative solutions at the conference.
Guided by our third strategic plan (2021-2025) and with a commitment to improve health outcomes, CHS works in partnership with the government, donors, other stakeholders and local communities to complement and synergise the delivery of sustainable health services.
We remain committed to working closely with the Ministry of Health to support the implementation of better quality health services in Kenya through sustainable health solutions and the effective and efficient utilisation of limited resources.
Kenya’s Non-governmental Organisations (NGO) Coordination Board in its Annual NGO Sector Report 2018/19 named CHS as the top player in the fight against HIV/AIDS.
With support from PEPFAR through CDC Kenya, CHS through Shinda Tena Project is contributing to the ambitious 95-95-95 targets to help end the HIV/AIDS epidemic. The project supports Siaya County in the delivery and expansion of quality HIV services.
