The partnership with HJFMRI is aligned with the goal of reaching UNAIDS’ 95-95-95 targets: ensuring 95% of people living with HIV know their status, 95% of diagnosed individuals are on antiretroviral therapy (ART), and 95% of those on ART achieve viral suppression. For FY25, SHDEPHA+ will implement this HIV/AIDS Care and Support Program in Mbeya, with a focus on three key areas: HIV/AIDS prevention, community-based HIV services (CBHS), and HIV testing and counselling services (HTS).
To meet these goals, SHDEPHA+ provides services that address gender-based violence (GBV), community HIV testing (HTS), pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), and post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP), especially for adolescents and youth aged 15-24. The program also focuses on key and vulnerable populations (KVP) at higher risk for HIV. In addition to prevention and testing, SHDEPHA+ engages in tracing clients who have missed appointments (MISSAPs) and those experiencing interruptions in treatment (IIT) to ensure continued care and contribute towards achieving the 95-95-95 targets.
