Empowering Young People through Accessible Healthcare

Reach A Hand Uganda (RAHU) is establishing model community clinics to provide youth-centered, gender-inclusive Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) services.

About the Project

Founded on the principle of "young people for young people," RAHU is expanding its 12-year legacy of youth empowerment by building physical health centers. Our mission is to challenge social norms and provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where young people, women, and men can access quality healthcare.

Our Services

The clinics offer a comprehensive range of medical services integrated with youth-friendly care:

General Outpatient  Care

Treatment for common illnesses like malaria and general medical consultations.

Family Planning & Reproductive Health

Modern contraception, Bilateral Tubal Ligation (BTL), and a specialized focus on male-friendly services including vasectomies.

Maternal & Neonatal Health

Antenatal care (ANC), safe deliveries, and postnatal care (PNC).

HIV/AIDS Services:

Testing, care, and prevention information.

Diagnostics

On-site laboratory, ultrasound scans, and minor surgical procedures.

Why It Matters

Uganda faces significant health challenges, including high maternal mortality and a rising need for contraceptive access. By establishing our first model clinic in Mbarara City, we are addressing local gaps such as high HIV burdens and a lack of safe spaces for students and vulnerable groups.

Location & Reach

The flagship clinic is located in Kampungu Zone, Mbarara City, serving over 20,000 people with plans to expand to 10 more districts across Uganda.
