The Jamaa na Afya ya Mtoto (JAMO) project team worked with 1,203 mothers (aged 18-29 with co-resident children aged 0-24 months) over a period of four years (October 2020 to June 2025) to identify models of family support that offer optimum protection for vulnerable mothers and young children living in Nairobi’s urban slums. We focused particularly on understanding how paternal and maternal kinship support and the context of mothers’ unions impact developmental outcomes.
