Does World Vision provide AIDS medication?
Outside of a few specific grant-funded programs, World Vision does not directly provide anti-retroviral drugs to people who are HIV-positive or who have AIDS. However, the organization provides referrals to programs that do provide ARVs, when available. In many contexts, staff are active in providing voluntary counseling and testing as well as basic healthcare, reducing the stigma that surrounds AIDS, and working in many other areas to promote and facilitate the success of ARV programs.
