CureCervicalCancer’s Mobile Health for Mamas program is a groundbreaking, community-based human papillomavirus (HPV) Testing and Treatment program that has reached nearly 30,000 women in Kenya with life-saving cervical cancer screening and thermal ablation treatment. Our innovative and comprehensive approach brings self-sample HPV test kits directly to women’s homes and conducts mobile treatment clinics for women at risk of developing cervical cancer. Our goal is to increase access to screening and treatment and to strengthen the local healthcare system through capacity building of healthcare workers. Our activities include training and upskilling healthcare workers, community education, community-based cervical cancer screening and treatment, and patient navigation.
Cervical Cancer: A Global Epidemic
We identify the highest need communities around the globe, provide the necessary equipment for screening and treatment, and establish permanent cervical cancer prevention clinics – both mobile and facility-based.
We conduct specialized training for local healthcare professionals and community health volunteers, so that they can continue to provide life-saving services to the women in their communities.
We aim to achieve sustainability by building local capacity and optimizing existing resources. We partner with national/local governments and organizations to strengthen healthcare systems and improve access to care.
