Peer mentor training: Pathway to competency for facilitators of Healthy Mothers Healthy Families workshops.

The HMHF competency training programme, based on principles of adult and transformative learning, was effective in training seven HMHF facilitators who were mothers and had suitable professional backgrounds to deliver HMHF workshops. Training supports the fidelity of the HMHF intervention. Further research to evaluate maternal outcomes for participants attending the facilitator-lead workshops is warranted.
