Plan works at local, national and international levels to raise awareness and provide support to affected communities worldwide.
Some examples of our work in this area:
Fighting HIV with Stepping Stones Alexandra Villavicencio, an HIV positive mother from Guayaquil in Ecuador, has turned her life around and started fighting HIV in her community, with help from Plan’s Stepping Stones workshops
Medical care for children with HIV in Mali Plan supports provision of anti-retroviral treatment for children with HIV. Worldwide, 19 out of every 20 children are denied vital treatment
Young, innocent and wedded to AIDS risk In some parts of the world, young girls are more likely to contract HIV if they get married than if they stay single
