AHF China

By the end of 2020, over a million people were living with HIV in China, with only 20% unaware of their status. In response, China implemented the "Four Frees, One Care" policy in 2003, offering free HIV testing, treatment, and support to those affected, including pregnant women and children orphaned by AIDS. Since 2006, AHF China has worked to support and enhance this policy, focusing on self-testing, treatment optimization, and strengthening care for HIV patients and local medical organizations, ensuring better access and support for those in need.

AHF China program

AHF China has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with 19 partners in 13 provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions, including Shanxi, Henan, Guangxi, Guangdong, Yunnan, Beijing, Hainan, Heilongjiang, Hunan, Zhejiang, Tianjin, Jiangsu, and Inner Mongolia.

AHF China, in collaboration with its partners, is committed to advancing HIV testing, care, and treatment by enhancing antiretroviral plans, patient support, and optimizing data-driven services. In 2023, between January and October, they conducted 2,270 HIV tests and provided care for 118,831 people living with HIV. Their combined online and offline testing models include community-based self-testing, initiated in 2013, and innovative on-site testing in bars, parks, and mobile labs to reach high-risk groups. Peer educators play a key role in referring newly diagnosed individuals to treatment.

AHF China also assists the government in updating AIDS-related policies and has introduced China’s first “Community Organization Practical Handbook for HIV Rapid Test Services” to standardize community-based testing. Collaborating with various organizations, AHF China works to raise HIV awareness, combat stigma, and promote condom use.
