USAID recognizes that scaling up access to HIV counseling and testing is a critical part of a comprehensive response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. The overwhelming majority of people living with HIV/AIDS are unaware of their HIV status. Counseling and testing can help individuals to learn their HIV serostatus and link people to treatment prevention, and care activities. USAID currently supports HIV voluntary counseling and testing in nearly 25 countries. Learn more about USAID activities promoting voluntary counseling and testing.
