HIV AIDS
Ongoing care and support services are crucial for people living with HIV who are on lifelong treatment. Besides treatment adherence, HIV patients need to learn how to manage side effects, opportunistic infections, and mental health issues. They live in constant uncertainty about the course and progression of the disease. These challenges get multiplied manifold for the population that is largely poor and marginalised. Exacerbated by the HIV related stigma, the social, structural and economic barriers people face difficulty in accessing healthcare services, therefore, depriving them of their basic human rights.
That’s where we come in.

We work with communities to develop prevention programmes that are tailored to their specific needs. Making the best use of tradition and innovation, we support the provision of prevention interventions that decrease the number of new HIV infections. We do this by combining three categories of prevention strategies:
Biomedical prevention – providing condoms and clean syringes and access to HIV medicines
Behavioural prevention – encouraging safer behaviours
Structural prevention – promoting legal and social change.
-
Friends, loved ones and other forms of social support not only improve your quality of life, they can help you through the tough times you might encounter. We have a variety of social support groups and events to help you meet new people, establish friendships and find a community of belonging.
