English term or phrase: HHs
I'm translating this document from Action contre la Faim about wells and water points in Zimbabwe.


The same survey also revealed that there was an increase in the proportion of ***HHs*** accessing safe and adequate safe water from a distance lesser than 500m from 30.3% at KAP1 to 39% at KAP3.

I'm not sure about this HHs stuff... Humans?
Would anybody have an idea (better than mine, that is :-) ) ?
Thanks
