HIV and AIDS
The HIV and AIDS pandemic transcends colour barriers, social standing, and educational qualifications and has brought about suffering to both young and old. HIV and AIDS is life as we know it today, it has become our reality!
You may ask:

• There are too many stories out there relating to HIV and I would like to find correct information!
• How do I assess if my behaviour is risky?
• My sister has been diagnosed with HIV and we as a family would like to support her and do not know how to.
• I have been stigmatised and discriminated against because of my HIV status. Where can I go for advocacy assistance?
