E-Poster | Closing the viral suppression gap for children living with HIV: Improving viral load suppression (VLS) among children living with HIV (CLHIV) by addressing household vulnerabilities

Program Description
Namibia has successfully met the UNAIDS 90-90-90 targets for adults, but children on antiretroviral treatment (ART) have a low rate of viral load suppression (VLS). According to NAMPHIA’s 2017 report, only 63% of children aged 0-14 years who are on ART are virologically suppressed. To tackle this issue, Project HOPE Namibia is implementing the Namibia Adherence and Retention Program (NARP), which is funded by USAID/PEPFAR. This program aims to improve clinical outcomes for children living with HIV (CLHIV) by addressing household vulnerabilities.
