Our mission is “To empower and advocate with disadvantaged people (especially women and girls) to uphold their human rights and improve on their health, education, socio economic status.”
Pro-Link envisions a world where women/men are given equal access to the necessities of life irrespective of where they come from. With a guiding philosophy of “Pro-Link! Working to improve lives of the disadvantaged”. We believe that people irrespective of their status can meaningfully contribute to their own development.
Pro-Link has a team of professional, technical specialists and logistical support staff made up of a Board of five Directors and a total staff strength of 43 with wide experience consisting of a core management team of an Executive Director who is accountable to the board, Head of Programs, Gender Focal person, HIV Counsellors, Project Coordinators, Head of Finance, Accountant/Administrator, Internal Auditor, Monitoring and Evaluation Coordinator supported by an Administrative Assistant and field staff in the Head office. This team provides technical assistance to a team of four staff (Project Coordinator, Field Staff, HIV/Psychosocial Counsellor, Accounts/Administrative officer) who are supported by over 350 community mobilizers and volunteers in each of the ten project offices. These staff have masters/degree/diploma qualifications in Development Studies, Finance, Public Health, Business Administration, Sociology and social work and their capacities are enhanced from time to time by Pro-Link and donors/partners in health (HIV/TB/STI/FP/SRHR/ADHR/MH), gender mainstreaming, Advocacy skills, financial management, M&E, Reporting, Organizational Development, among others. Also, to ensure quality in performance and sustainability of our interventions, each project office has an Advisory Board which draws its membership from the community. These men and women are active and successful in their own diverse fields of endeavours, both public and private. They are leaders in government institutions, educational institutions, Health Institutions, businesses, and local community organizations. Working on voluntary basis, these leaders provide the necessary policy-making support and enlightened solid leadership that account for the successful record of Pro-Link’s programmes.
