Children are very vulnerable to HIV infection and ARVs can prolong the lives of those living with HIV. Many children living with HIV do not have access to ARVs or do not yet need them.

This programme explains the many things that can be done to take care of children who are living with HIV and are not taking ARVs. It covers many aspects - from basic rights like immunisations and vaccinations, to knowing exactly when a child must be put onto ARVs.
