Abstract

This study evaluates the community care in Nigeria intervention in OVC, a case study of three communities in Anambra state. The objective of the study among others is to determine the sustainability and what difference the SHP programme has made in enhancing access to basic needs/welfare among beneficiaries, evaluate to what extent this model can be replicated and what factors can enhance that replication. Primary and secondary sources of data collection were employed. Questionnaires were used to gather primary data from the respondents while secondary data was gotten from necessary publications. The sample size used is three hundred and eighty-seven (387) and this was randomly selected from three communities Umuawulu, Isseke, and Inland Town St Stephen’s from three local government of Awka South, Ihiala and Onitsha South respectively and one hundred and twenty nine (129) respondents were randomly selected and forty three from each community by stratified sampling technique. The statistical tools like ttest, F-test, ANOVA, Chi-square, Runs test and Simple Percentage methods of analysis were used to analyze the collected data. It was found out from the analysis that: 1. Self Help Project (SHP) has not significantly improved and secured the livelihood of OVCs and their households in Anambra state. 2. Self Help Project (SHP) has not been a success in Anambra state. 3. Self Help Project (SHP) has significantly improved the standard of living of OVCs in Anambra state. 4. Self Help Project (SHP) can be significantly sustained among participants in the communities. Tables, graphs and charts were analyzed with descriptive statistics. Variances that exist among and between variables were analyzed using Analysis of variance (ANOVA). Analysis of covariance (ANOCOVA) was not employed since there is no interaction among the variables due to the independent contribution of each variable used
