Benue State in central Nigeria has the highest HIV/AIDS sero-prevalence rate in the country. In response to this need, CEDPA/Nigeria supported the Vulnerable Children's Project. The project focused on providing emergency support services, building caregivers' capacity, and mobilizing the community. The baseline study shows that there is an urgent need for more aggressive adolescent sexual reproductive health interventions.
