Committing Gainhopes Towards Low-Income Pregnant Women In Ethiopia
Vision of a world where leadership knows no bounds and women are empowered to rise and shine
Currently, the Gainhopes team is engaged in doing an outstanding job in preventing mother-to-child transmission of HIV/AIDS through screening and counseling on ART adherence in Ethiopia.
We conduct home-to-home HIV/AIDS screenings to support low-income pregnant women who lack access to antenatal care (ANC) and also screen for pregnancy-related hypertensive disorders to reduce potential negative health outcomes for newborns.
After the screenings, we provide counseling to HIV-positive pregnant women on ART adherence using various techniques and connect them with local hospitals for ANC follow-up.
We facilitate ANC follow-ups for all pregnant women by collaborating with local healthcare centers.
Additionally, we offer counseling on breastfeeding for HIV-positive mothers and provide guidance on perinatal care to help prevent the transmission of HIV to their newborns.
