Through its work with health facilities, communities, and civil society organizations, the USAID Strengthening the Care Continuum project in January 2020 identified a gap in limited-literacy materials on HIV in Ghana’s Western Region. The project, in collaboration with the Western Regional Directorate of the Ghana Health Service, decided to fill this gap by developing targeted materials for several key audiences: people recently diagnosed with HIV; people living with HIV and currently in care; people at risk for HIV; health care providers; and pregnant women, including those living with HIV. The materials are intended to support education, advocacy, and case finding; scale-up index testing; and linkage to treatment. This factsheet, created by JSI in 2020, is part of the suite of health literacy materials.
We strive to build lasting relationships to produce better health outcomes for all.
