Our History
Established in 2002
The Nyanza Reproductive Health Society (NRHS) was established in 2002 as a Kenyan non-profit organization registered under the Societies Act. Since then, NRHS has played a leading role in sexual and reproductive health research, translating findings into national policies and programs.
