Addressing Gender Based Violence in HIV Testing and Counseling

The overarching goal of this study is to pilot an approach to HIV testing and counseling (HTC) that addresses intimate partner violence. The results of the study will fill an important gap in the literature and contribute to efforts by Kenyatta National Hospital in Nairobi, Kenya-and the HIV and sexual and reproductive health field globally-to better address intimate partner violence in our work.
