SOCIAL SERVICES FOR VULNERABLE POPULATIONS (SSVP)
The goal of the Social Services for Vulnerable Populations Project is to reduce the risk and impact of HIV/AIDS and other health conditions on most vulnerable populations in Rwanda, especially people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHA), orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) and their families.
The project builds upon USAID support to the Government of Rwanda (GOR) to support these vulnerable populations to access health and social services that enable them to live productive lives.
The project will work in the health areas of HIV/AIDS care, prevention and treatment, family planning/reproductive health (FP/RH), maternal/neonatal/child health (MNCH), child survival (CS), malaria and nutrition.
In addition to linking PLHA, OVC and other vulnerable families to basic health care, it will also link with support services that mitigate the impact of HIV disease, including services that promote or support education, economic empowerment, and legal protection.
