Through the ACHIEVE project, community case worker Salma Roberts is helping the most vulnerable households in Tanzania to build socio-economic resilience and face the challenges of living with HIV. Her work is critical in helping adolescents and children living with HIV, as well as their caregivers, to know their HIV status and start and stay on treatment so they can achieve HIV viral suppression. Salma represents the strength and resilience of community structures in achieving the 95-95-95 goals.
