Project Report | Oct 11, 2007
October 2007 Update

By Sarah Dotlich | Programs Officer

Hlomelikusasa staff recently held HIV/AIDS awareness workshops in the KwaZulu-Natal Province of South Africa. In these workshops Hlomelikusasa invited a representative from the Department of Health to help conduct the training. The representative introduced the programs of the Department to the participants. He thanked the crucial role played by the community-based organizations (CBO) and non-governmental organisation (NGO) in communities they live with. He emphasized the fact that the government initiatives will not succeed without mutual relationship that could be built together with community members.

As a result of the workshops, these women now know how to access local resources to get tested, to find out how they can qualify for Anti-Retroviral Treatment and where they can go for counselling.
