A Situation Assessment of Children Infected and Affected by AIDS (CABA) in Nepal

The Save the Children Nepal program under the Global Fund HIV grant has implemented a Cash Transfer Program for children living with HIV (CLHIV) in Nepal since mid-April 2014. The Community Care Centre (CCC), managed by the National Association of People Living with HIV (NAP+N), implements the program in 66 districts of Nepal. The program provides 1000 Nepali rupees (approximately 10 USD) a month to CLHIV up to 18 years old.

Youth LEAD, in collaboration with its country partners, Young Key Populations (YKP) Lead Nepal, and NAP+N conducted a national study to assess the situation of CLHIV receiving cash support, including the children affected by AIDS who do not receive the cash support.
