Overview
Medical advances and treatment have changed the way we view HIV/AIDS. Although the outlook and future has improved for individuals living with HIV/AIDS, getting the right care, treatment and support is not easy. For some, the fear and feeling of isolation is overwhelming and it is difficult to reach out to family or friends.

- Support and planning centered around each individual’s needs
- Connection to health care services
