Counselling, HIV testing and cholera prevention in support groups
Outreach sessions covered HIV transmission and prevention, early testing and treatment, common myths, and keeping homes clean to prevent cholera.
MASYAP continued its outreach to support groups, offering counselling and HIV testing and raising awareness of HIV/AIDS and related health issues.
What members learned
- How HIV is transmitted and how to prevent it
- Why early testing and treatment matter
- The truth behind common myths about HIV/AIDS
- How to keep homes and surroundings clean to prevent diseases such as cholera
The counselling sessions gave members a safe place to get accurate information and make informed decisions about their health, and communities were encouraged to work together on hygiene and disease prevention.
