“Improving community health and economic prosperity” – that’s Hezborn Digo’s personal mission as a Youth Peer Provider with CFK Africa, an important role in increasing youth access to healthcare services.
As a YPP, Hezborn connects youth in Kibera with mental health counseling, consultations, sexual and reproductive health services, and screening for infectious diseases at CFK Africa’s Youth Friendly Services Center.
Through outreach, he informs youth about health services, builds trust by relating to similar experiences, reduces stigma around seeking help, and provides relatable and approachable guidance. Come along for a day in the life of Hezborn!
