Description: The purpose of this program is to scale up a comprehensive and integrated package of HIV prevention interventions and services in selected districts in the republic of Uganda. Those districts include but are not limited to: Kalangala, Mubende, Mityana, Luwero, Nakaseke, Wakiso, Nakasongola, and Apac and are selected because they have a high HIV prevalence (&gt;8%) and are currently implementing district-wide door to door HIV routine, confidential counseling and testing (HCT) programs through PEPFAR support. Door to door HCT is an excellent approach for accessing confidential HIV counseling and testing services to couples and families. It identifies many discordant couples, improves disclosure of sero-status, reduces stigma and therefore likely has a significant impact on HIV prevention. Post test clubs for HIV + clients and discordant couples have already been formed within the door to door programs in some districts.
