Curriculum of educational sessions to promote client engagement and retention in HIV care in order to increase overall rates of viral suppression, based on evidence informed practices, including motivational interviewing, to address identified gaps in care.
HIV Care Continuum
The HIV care continuum is a representation of the extent to which individuals living with HIV are diagnosed, engaged in care and benefiting from antiretroviral therapy in terms of full viral suppression (undetectable lab values). The value of the continuum in managing the HIV epidemic is compelling: individuals engaged in care can manage HIV as a chronic condition and simultaneously reduce the risk of transmitting the virus to others.
