AGBE FOUNDATION made a Right to Information request to Ghana Health Service for a comprehensive list of Facilities under the agency that provide adolescent-friendly sexual, reproductive and mental health (SRM) services.
This became an important need because Agbe Foundation saw the need to connect the volunteered youth being trained in underserved Ghanaian communities to undertake these SRM services to accessible facilities for the sustainability of their local initiatives.
We are grateful to Mr. Kwesi Fianko and the Information Office of Ghana Health Service for responding to our request and making the information available to us in an electronic form.
