Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will adapt the Game Changers peer advocacy training model for family planning context and pilot test the feasibility, acceptability and preliminary efficacy of the intervention to empower female contraception users to advocate for contraception use among women in their social networks who have unmet need for contraception.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The investigators will conduct a pilot RCT of Game Changers for Family Planning (GC-FP) with 40 female modern contraceptive (MC) users (index participants) at one rural public clinic, with 20 randomly assigned to receive the intervention (in 2 groups of 10) and 20 to the wait-list control; enrollment and randomization will be stratified by age and relationship status. Each index will recruit up to 3 social network members (alters) with unmet need for MC (max. total=120). Data will be collected at baseline and month 6 from all participants; primary outcome is alter MC use at month 6.

Intervention

peer-led, multi-session advocacy training group intervention

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Game Changers for Family Planning

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Game Changers for Family Planning (GC-FP) intervention. The intervention will consist of 6 group sessions. The sessions will focus on stigma reduction, disclosure decision making, knowledge, and building skills for advocacy. The 2-hour, weekly sessions will be facilitated by 2 trained peers who are MC users, and conducted in Luganda using a structured manual, and group format to facilitate: sharing of experiences to build support, modeling and motivation; group problem solving and role playing to build skills and self-efficacy; and homework between sessions to practice skills and generate experiences to be processed in the group.

Wait-list control

Usual care/no intervention
