C-Change is supporting the [[Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision Program]] (VMMC) program of the Government of Kenya (GOK) and providing technical support to the National VMMC task force and regional communication sub-committees. The goal is to create demand for VMMC and reinforce the incorrect notion that [[Circumcision| Male Circumcision]] reduces risk for men. C-Change developed the Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision Communication Toolkit.
Materials in the toolkit include billboards, posters, video, flip charts for circumcision providers, radio spots, faith and business leaders, dialogue cards, and a handbook for community mobilizers. C-Change continues to develop materials for Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision that include tools for coalition building, media outreach, advocacy with policymakers, monitoring and evaluation, and materials for circumcising communities. C-Change is also developing an adaptation guide for material development to facilitate scale-up of circumcision. Critical to the circumcision program is the National [[Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision Program|Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision task force]]. As part of this task force, C-Change has developed a wide range of communication messages and materials that promote circumcision. They work to popularize the idea that male circumcision prevents [[HIV]].<ref name="C-Change"/>
