Actual (reported)The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether adding adolescent health services to routine government health programs can increase Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination coverage among 9-year-old girls and improve use of other health services by adolescents in Nigeria. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does offering an integrated package of adolescent health services increase the proportion of 9-year-old girls who receive the HPV vaccine? Does this package increase use of other services such as reproductive health counseling, nutrition and vision screening, mental health services, and deworming among girls and boys ages 9-15 years? Researchers will compare areas that receive the integrated package to areas that continue with the standard government services to see if the intervention improves vaccination and health service use. Participants will: Be surveyed about HPV vaccination and health service use before and after the program is offered. Take part in interviews or focus groups about experiences with adolescent health services. Be offered HPV vaccination and other adolescent health services through local health facilities.

Actual (reported)Change in HPV vaccine coverage among 9-year-old girls from baseline to endline
Human Papillomavirus Virus (HPV) vaccine coverage will be assessed among 9-year-old girls in intervention and comparison (Local Government Areas (LGAs) using baseline and endline household surveys of mother-daughter dyads, supported by administrative vaccination records from health facilities. Differences between baseline and endline coverage in intervention LGAs will be compared with those in comparison LGAs to estimate the impact of the integrated adolescent health package.
Baseline, 14 months
Proportion of 9-year-old girls who received at least one dose of HPV vaccine
Assessed using baseline and endline household surveys and service delivery data. Coverage will be calculated as the number of eligible girls who received at least one dose divided by the total eligible girls surveyed.
Baseline, 14 months
Local government areas (LGAs) where the routine government health system delivers an integrated package of adolescent health services. The package includes HPV vaccination, sexual and reproductive health counseling, general health check-ups, nutrition and vision screening, mental health support, deworming, and dental and oral health services.
Local government areas (LGAs) where only standard government health services are provided. HPV vaccination and other adolescent health services are delivered according to routine practice without the additional integrated package.
Delivery of an integrated package of adolescent health services through government health facilities. The package includes HPV vaccination, sexual and reproductive health counseling, general health check-ups, nutrition and vision screening, mental health support, deworming, and dental and oral health services. Implemented in intervention LGAs in Lagos and Kebbi States.
