Timeline
Interventions
Consenting drug shops will receive: * training on Malkia Klabu implementation; * HIVST training (same as comparison drug shops); * procedures for referring to youth-friendly HIV/SRH services; * a monthly supply of HIVST reserved for free distribution to AGYW, with "free" price stickers and pre-packaged with referral information; and * reimbursement for SRH products given to AGYW (e.g., birth control pills).
Consenting drug shops in the comparison arm catchment areas will have access to the Maisha Meds inventory management application system for offline digital recording of HIVST, HIVST kits earmarked for free to AGYW, guidance on HIV care referral plan to facilitate linkage to nearby health facilities for AGYW. These control drug shops will not participate in Malkia Klabu (Queen Club) program implementation.
