Though access to treatment has improved significantly in India, many people living with HIV (PLHIV) still do not receive the care and support they need. With funding from The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, our Vihaan programme is helping to change this by expanding access to care and support services across the country to increase treatment adherence, reduce stigma and discrimination, and improve the overall quality of life of PLHIV.
