Clients : Originally this was an open house and its staff members
went out to give education and training. Later, the open house was
closed down so that people living with HIV/AIDS could reunite with
their communities while the staff members changed their approach by
visiting local communities to meet PLHAs and their families and provide
prevention training. |
