Project
Approach:
The
proposed programme's premise is that the community based care
and support to CLHA is most important and beneficial for their
normal growth. Also that it is well tested strategy to ensure
quality care and support to CLHA in resource limited settings.
In addition, it is critical to increase the utilisation of
the services (including ART) made available by the government
at different levels for varied purposes by CLHA, since stand-alone
specific care and support programme are not very cost effective
and sustainable.

The
proposed programme will focus only on the children living
with HIV/AIDS and are in the age group of 0-14 years.

and treatment to them
