ACCESS, an acronym for Accelerated Control of HIV Epidemic and Sustainability Solution is a 5-year PEPFAR-funded comprehensive HIV care, treatment, prevention, and support program, implemented across Abia, Enugu, and Imo States in Nigeria which began in October 2022.
The project works to strengthen HIV services efficiently and sustainably through effective GoN (Government of Nigeria) and inter-agency collaborations, leveraging resources to ensure cost-effective interventions and minimize duplication of efforts.
The ACCESS Project uses innovative strategies such as the SURGE for intensified HIV case finding as well as new service delivery models (NSDM) to strengthen linkages between the community and health facilities and improve retention in care.
