In 2015 and 2016, World Vision Lanka has engaged hundreds of fathers in the Ambagamuwa Area Development Program<\/a> (ADP) in caregiving and gender equality, working to create family-wide and community-wide transformation through its MenCare programming.<\/p>\n

World Vision Lanka has shared stories of the changes men have undergone<\/a> as a part of the program: reducing their use of violence, becoming more involved fathers, and becoming more supportive partners. But, what do their wives have to say?<\/p>\n

Below, we hear from the wives of MenCare participants to find out how the program has impacted not only men, but also their relationships and families:<\/p>\n

Finances:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cMy husband now sits with me to do money management. We both plan together and prepare the family\u2019s budget on the day we receive our salaries. We decide what we have to purchase for our family and children. Before, my husband decided everything alone.\u201d
\n<\/em>\u2013 Kalaichelvi<\/p>\n

Alcohol consumption:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cMy husband has reduced his alcohol consumption after attending MenCare classes. I feel happy to see his change.<\/em>\u201d
\n\u2013 P. Puwaneshwary<\/p>\n

\u201cMy husband has now stopped his alcohol consumption. We save that money [that he used to spend on alcohol] and deposit it in our children\u2019s bank account.\u201d<\/em>
\n\u2013 Sagunthala<\/p>\n

Parenting:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cNow my husband is spending more time with our children. I am very happy.<\/em>\u201d
\n\u2013 P. Katpagam<\/p>\n

Anger management:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cNow my husband does not get very angry. Before the MenCare program, he used to get angry a lot.\u201d<\/em>
\n\u2013 Rajaletchumy<\/p>\n

Housework:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cMy husband is now helping me to do the household work. I can see these changes after attending the MenCare family retreat program.<\/em>\u201d
\n\u2013 S. Annamma<\/p>\n

Family time:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cAt least once a day, we have a meal together as family, which gives us happiness and connection.\u201d<\/em>
\n\u2013 Pathmawadhi<\/p>\n
