Comfort and hope: six case studies on mobilizing family and community care for and by people with HIV/AIDS

The case studies included in this collection stem from a UNAIDS presentation entitled Home and Community Care: It Works! It documented the experiences and lessons learned by six community-level projects from Africa, Asia, and Latin America. It was given at the Third International Conference on Home and Community Care for People with HIV/AIDS. Subsequently it was decided to publish them. All the projects were chosen because they reflected most or all of what UNAIDS considers key elements of home and community care, as well as most of UNAIDS Best Practice criteria.
