1.       Counseling

With great concern to the youth and young people we have come up with improvising on assisting the youth with direct information on their well being concerning safe sex, sex within marriage and sex before marriage.  Precautions to be undertaken, to dos and don’ts which are direct to their life cycle as the youth and those in marriage are the current new infection rate higher than those who are still exploring

 

2.       Stigmatization

We are trying to eradicate stigmatization through community based educations among the families of affected patients of HIV hence these are the groups which are the first to come to terms with their loved ones being sick.  The second group being the society surrounding the community which should know that the disease is real and its not the end of the world for those affected by the disease as there are drugs and medication for living longer in case of therapy which should be monitored by their loved ones to assist them too live a longer life.

 

3.       ART Therapy monitoring    

Patients are monitored on their Anti retroviral Therapy home based care which is done by other members of the organization, family members and also government officials who are referrals to the good work being done by the society at large.  The therapy has to go hand in hand with the supplements of food donation to those who have no food or are very sick and not working.  Starting small scale businesses to those who have no income generating activities to support their families, hence management and support group on same are being encouraged as these groups cannot do these alone but by the help of their families and neighbours who are always there for their assistance.

4.       SCHOLARSHIPS

Providing scholarships to those affected family members who are school going to assure them of their educational career of completing their desire in education.  Scholarships are provided both to girl child and boy child both in higher education and colleges.  Always these are vetted since our society shall provide the best to foresee that their young ones receive the best education for a better tomorrow.

 

5.       REHABILITATION CENTRE

By providing a rehabilitation centre to those whose both parents have passed on and have no other relatives, our main objective is not to keep the children in a rehabilitation centre but to carter for their needs as we allocate their background of where a bouts they come from and relocate them to their descendants who are their original family members.    With UNICEFs help and other international organizations and local organizations this shall go a long way in foreseeing that all children are well catered for no matter the race, colour or ethnic group.  They shall be looked after just as their rights are concerned.
