Description

The rapid roll-out of antiretroviral treatment programs has made it possible for people infected with HIV at birth to live into adolescence and adulthood. These young people often have been receiving HIV treatment all their lives. They may be ready for dating and sexual relationships, but there are very few programs that help them do this safely and address their special health needs. The majority of HIV and AIDS support programs are aimed at either young children or adults. Since 2006, the Population Council has pioneered research-first in Uganda and then in Kenya-to explore the sexual and reproductive health needs of young people aged 10 to 19 who are infected with HIV. The Council has used the findings from these ground-breaking studies to collaborate with local partners, ministries of health, and international agencies. We are helping to develop and test healthy and positive approaches to sexuality and reproductive health within HIV and AIDS programs for adolescents living with HIV.
