Youth-Friendly Services (YFS) is an evidence-based public health intervention aimed to reduce sexual and reproductive health problems among youth. To achieve the desired outcomes, YFS has to be implemented with a high level of fidelity. However, there is an evidence gap in its implementation with fidelity. Hence, the main objective of the study was to describe the level of implementation fidelity of YFS among public health centers in Central Gondar Zone, northwest Ethiopia. Therefore, this study investigated the level of implementation fidelity of YFS among public health centers in Central Gondar Zone, northwest Ethiopia.
