In kayonza District, a mother shared how the community dialogues supported by Happy Family Rwanda Organization (HFRO) transformed her family’s life.
Before attending the sessions, she said she struggled to communicate with her teenage daughter about relationships and reproductive health.
I used to avoid those conversations because I didn’t know the right words, she explained.
After participating in HFRO’s awareness meetings on parent–child communication, gender equality, and preventing early pregnancies, she gained confidence and began having open discussions at home. “Now my daughter trusts me. We talk about her future, her goals, and how to stay safe and focused in school,” she shared with a smile.
