Our focus areas include:

HIV EDUCATION & PREVENTION
HACT delivers age-appropriate, evidence-based programmes proven to reduce new HIV infections as well as inspire and mobilize healthy living advocates. HACT recognises that women and young girls are particularly vulnerable, which is why many of our programmes are tailor made to address their unique needs and challenges. HIV HEALTHCARE
HACT offer

s holistic and comprehensive healthcare services to individuals, families and communities that align with South Africaโ€™s National Strategic Plan on HIV/AIDS, TB & STIโ€™s. These services include HIV testing, TB & STI screening, home-based and inpatient care as well as adherence counselling. HIV SUPPORT & FAMILY STRENGTHENING
HACT provides targeted support to vulnerable and at-risk groups such as orphaned and vulnerable children as well as gogos (grandmothers) caring for such children. Through our innovative HIV programmes we are able to build the capacity and resilience of local families and communities. ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT
HACTโ€™s award-winning economic empowerment projects help create brighter futures for HIV impacted families and communities through practical skills development and training opportunities which bring about sustainable job creation and poverty alleviation. HACT BIZ
HACT Biz has been established to increase HACTโ€™s sustainability as well as provide much needed skills development, training and employment opportunities for the disadvantaged communities we serve. HACT Biz is 100% owned by HACT the NPO, thereby making our NPO beneficiaries the full beneficiaries of all profits made from our business. This also means all social enterprises started and owned by HACT under HACT Biz, are level 1 B-BBEE contributors, making HACT the ideal organisation for your company to partner with to improve its B-BBEE scorecard.
