This case study is one in a series that highlights different aspects of a case management system and referral mechanisms utilized by OVC programs. The studies aim to provide useful information that can inform the work of policymakers and practitioners engaged in programs serving vulnerable children and families. In particular, the case studies on referral mechanisms are targeted to government, especially Ministries of Health and Social Welfare, and OVC implementing partners to highlight ways of improving referrals among and between sectors, especially between the health and social service sectors.
