resources available towards reducing the transmission rate of HIV/AIDS
in the state.

partnering organisations, which including peer educators, networks of
people living with or affected by HIV, young people counselors,
community health workers, door-to-door service providers, civil
society organizations and grass-roots activists for their commitment
