NGOs & THE
PLHIV COMMUNITY
You are not alone on your journey. In addition to Treatment Sites, there is a group of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) that serve people living with HIV (PLHIV). These not-for-profit organizations engage in various functions. Some provide counseling and material support, while others practice advocacy. Advocacy means that they speak on behalf of PLHIV and champion their rights. They also try to ensure that PLHIV live in a world that is free from discrimination. Check out the list of NGOs below that was created by the National Aids Coordinating Committee (NACC).
