Predicted longevity related to support sufficiency
Periodo de tiempo: Up to 5 months

This outcome will be measured by asking VHTs to rate aspects of their current support.
We will follow up those questions by asking how long they expect to be able to continue in their position as VHTs.
The two results will be evaluated for possible trends connecting sufficiency of existing support with predicted longevity.
