ACQUIRING KNOWLEDGE: Integrating Family Planning with Antiretroviral Therapy Services in Uganda
This project brief looks at a pilot project conducted by the ACQUIRE Project to integrate family planning within HIV care and treatment services. ACQUIRE worked with The AIDS Support Organization (TASO) in Uganda to implement a number of strategies, such as:

Determining the fertility desires and reproductive health issues of HIV-positive women and couples, including how women accessing HIV care and treatment service met their family planning needs
Assessing the service-delivery system’s capacity to provide family planning within HIV care and treatment services, looking at factors such as service providers’ capability, supervisory support, and medical policies
Assisting service providers, supervisors, and service-delivery systems in using a model to provide family planning within HIV care and treatment sites
Monitoring and evaluating family planning-integrated HIV care and treatment services
Sharing project experiences to guide expansion of family planning–integrated services. (2007)
