description The major objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of sexual reproductive health and rights services among adolescents. The study used wards 5 urban and 24 rural of Shurugwi district as case study and a sample size of 60 respondents was used. Adolescents in secondary schools and out of schools together with service providers, respondents provided rich pooled data that informed the study findings. The researcher employed the qualitative research approach in the study.

The study has surfaced several recommendations in order to establish an effective SRHR service up take among adolescents if teenage pregnancy and high rates of school drop outs are to be reduced.
