Nyala also benefits from a teen mother’s support group at the Ifo Child Friendly Space (CFS) center, which provides safe, nurturing spaces for young mothers and their children. Here, she meets fellow young mothers and adolescent girls, where they gather and receive psychosocial support. At the CFS, Nyala’s daughter also has the opportunity to play with other children who go to the center.
