The self-help groups learn to identify initiatives that contribute to improving conditions of sero-positive individuals, their families, and their communities. The project also increases PLWHA groups' advocacy skills and empower them to take a more active role in reducing the rate of spread of HIV/AIDS and stigma and discrimination.
