- W1099101358 abstract "Impact of Goodwill Organizations and Community Collaboration on AIDS-Orphans’ Needs in Nyanza Province, Kenya by Anthonia Nwagbo MD, Windsor University, 2003 MPH, Nova Southeastern University (Summa Cum Laude), 2005 BS, Eastern Kentucky University (Cum Laude), 1989 Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Public Health Walden University August 2015 Abstract A number of researchers have explored the toll of AIDS on the children who have become orphans as a result of the disease; others have investigated the roles of aid-giving agencies on the alleviation of the orphans’ situation. However, despite researchers’ pointing to the germaneness of community and goodwill agency liaison, no study had examined the impact of such collaboration on the resources available to the orphans. ToA number of researchers have explored the toll of AIDS on the children who have become orphans as a result of the disease; others have investigated the roles of aid-giving agencies on the alleviation of the orphans’ situation. However, despite researchers’ pointing to the germaneness of community and goodwill agency liaison, no study had examined the impact of such collaboration on the resources available to the orphans. To this end, the heads-of-household of 532 AIDS orphans under 18 years old in Kenya’s Nyanza province were surveyed to investigate the impact of community-referral on the state of AIDS orphans with regard to homelessness, birth registration, food security, school attendance, and sibling separation. The theoretical framework for the study was rooted on the interplay of resource-availability and stressors on AIDS orphans. Results of regression analysis showed that double orphans ate fewer meals than maternal or paternal orphans. There was an inverse relationship between the number of AIDS orphans in a home and the likelihood of homelessness; older orphans tended to not be separated from their siblings; double orphans were more likely than single orphans to be separated from their siblings; school absenteeism was higher among older orphans and when the head-ofhousehold was female; community-referred, male children, offsprings of the respondents tended to have birth registration. The results of the assessment will be pertinent to stakeholders as a framework to guide program planning and implementation as they address the needs of AIDS orphans in Nyanza province and other similar communities. Impact of Goodwill Organizations and Community Collaboration on AIDS-Orphans’ Needs in Nyanza Province, Kenya by Anthonia Nwagbo MD, Windsor University, 2003 MPH, Nova Southeastern University (Summa Cum Laude), 2005 BS, Eastern Kentucky University (Cum Laude, 1989 Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Public Health Walden University August 2015 Dedication I dedicate my doctoral dissertation to the loving memory of my parents, Festus and Esther Nwagbo, who instilled in me the discipline and fortitude that have guided me over the years. Acknowledgments This journey was arduous and fraught with many challenges, paramount among which was juggling a medical career along with dissertation writing. Furthermore, I travelled to Kenya on the heels of the West Gate violence, with great trepidation. Added to that was the hardship of data collection which saw me on motorbike rides through treacherous terrains, speeding through bumpy sometimes muddy unpaved pathways while being whipped on the face and arms by low-hanging tree branches and almost being crushed by two trucks from opposite directions that would not yield the right-of-way to each other on a narrow bridge. The experience had me asking God if those were my final days on earth. I certainly would not have come this far but for the Grace of God. “For what you have done I will always praise you in the presence of your faithful people. And I will hope in your name, for your name is good” (Psalm 52:9). Many thanks to Reverend Father Fredrick for coordinating my travel and lodging; thanks to Dorcas Orwa in whose house I spent the nights when I was not out conducting surveys. Thanks to Nicholas Ngesa for coordinating the translation of my questionnaire to two local languages. My gratitude also goes to Dr. Shen, my mentor and committee chair, Dr Patrick Tschida, committee member, and Dr. Angela Prehn, University Research Reviewer (URR), for their hard work, guidance, and unceasing dedication that helped me through every milestone in the dissertation process. I am grateful for the support of my family, especially, my daughter and magnum opus, Chinwe Kpaduwa, MD. Many thanks go to my sister and friend, Rev. Sr. Mary Eugene, who has been my emotional and spiritual support." @default.
