In support of a strong pediatric care and support program for HIV-exposed and infected children, the USG proposes to strengthen PMTCT services by training health teams, increasing referrals to early infant detection (E.I.D.), train counselors to integrate E.I.D. information into post counseling sessions, and support NGOs, CBOs, and FBOs to link the community with hospital services and appropriate testing.

These organizations will also assist to identify mothers who do not return for tests results. Health teams in primary health clinics will be trained in early identification of HIV exposure and infection status, collaborate with NGOs, CBOs and FBOs in the provision of care at the community level, and provide wrap-around services to children and mothers (e.g., immunizations, reproductive health and family planning, TB testing and treatment).
