Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, Swaziland Country Office

The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation (EGPAF) began supporting the Kingdom of Swaziland in 2003 to prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV and to provide HIV/AIDS care and treatment programs for those living with the virus. EGPAF’s work ensures that women, children, and families living with HIV have access to comprehensive,
high-quality HIV services including HIV testing, counseling, treatment, and psychosocial support, particularly for children and adolescents, in multiple health settings.
EGPAF-Swaziland supports the Ministry of Health (MOH) GKOS MOH to plan, implement, monitor, and evaluate programs according to epidemic patterns across the country.
EGPAF-Swaziland also supports improved infrastructure for laboratory services and service delivery. EGPAF Swaziland also works to strengthen health systems through procurement of essential HIV drugs and commodities; and to
increase community engagement in prevention of mother-to child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV, early infant HIV diagnosis and male circumcision. By December 2013, EGPAF was
supporting PMTCT and HIV testing and counseling (HTC) activities in 144 sites in all regions across the country.
