Adolescent-friendly health services for adolescents living with HIV: From theory to practice
Currently, adolescent-friendly health services, especially for those with HIV, lack effective integration with other essential services like mental health and sexual and reproductive health. As a result, many adolescents living with HIV miss out on services meeting the principles of adolescent-friendly health services: equitable, acceptable, accessible, appropriate, and effective. This publication defines key components of adolescent-friendly health services, compiles existing guidance, and explores differentiated service delivery for adolescents with HIV. It also showcases best-practice case studies from country experiences.
