- Resource constraints
- High dependence on volunteers
- A legal obstacle: the Kenyan law outlaws sex worker and MSM activities hence we have to get round these legal provisions through other avenues
- High turnover of sex worker volunteers due to the highly migratory nature of this target audience
- Difficulties in dealing with new police bosses whenever there are changes and ‘buying-in’ of this programme is required of the new boss.
- High poverty levels amongst our target groups predispose them to ‘begging habits, often pressurizing our coordinators/to give them handouts which we can neither afford nor sustain.
- Stigma and discrimination towards sex workers, PLWHA, MSMs and IDUs
