The project raises awareness about the need of treatment for PLHA through the participation of PLHA in 136 communities, so that 300 PLHAs who need treatment can access it without fear in Cambodia.
The goal of the project is to increase the role of 300 People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLHA) and mobilize communities in expanding access to antiretroviral (ARV) therapy in 136 communities of Kampot province in Cambodia, focusing on supporting community engagement in ARV. CHC will work to increase the involvement of communities to provide reliable information, and increase the number of HIV+ people who have access to treatment, thus empower PLHA and involve communities in ARV treatment preparedness
If we raise community awareness about the need of treatment for PLHA, their rights and support the cost of refer patient to OI/ART services, we will be able to reduce stigmas and number of people starting and remaining on treatment will be increased.
300 PLHAs starting and remaining on treatment including life-time adherence to treatment, positive living, prevention, psychological support, meeting economic and social needs, and referral to providers of care, support and prevention.
