Association DES Femmes Haïtiennes Infectées Et Affectées Par LE VIH

Association DES Femmes Haitiennes Infectees Et Affectees Par LE VIH (doing business as Afhiavih) is a non-profit organization registered as a corporate entity to receive federal awards. It appears to be an association focused on supporting women in Haiti affected by HIV/AIDS.

Afhiavih has received multiple sub-awards from Georgetown University, funded through federal grants, to provide services related to HIV/AIDS patient retention, tracking and re-engaging patients lost to follow-up, addressing stigma and discrimination, supporting implementation of drug dispensing services, and conducting vocational training sessions. The scope of work includes educating clients on available services, developing materials and guides, conducting active searches for lost patients through phone calls and home visits, facilitating support groups, evaluating causes of dropouts, accompanying clients to sites, providing therapeutic education, collaborating with treatment facilities, ensuring clients are registered at dispensing sites, evaluating services through mystery client approaches, and ensuring optimal communication with treatment sites. The work aims to improve retention, address stigma, support implementation of drug dispensing programs, and provide critical support services to HIV/AIDS patients in Haiti, particularly in the Nord and Nord-Ouest departments.
