Session 1.2 Objectives After completing this session, participants will: Be able to explain the importance of a training specific to adolescent care and treatment Understand the training objectives Have set training “ground rules” 12

Discussion Questions Why do you think a training specific to adolescent HIV care and treatment is important? 13

Key Facts about Adolescents and HIV Global epidemiology: In 2009, 41% of all new HIV infections (in people aged 15 and over) were among youth 15–24 years of age. 2 million adolescents aged 10–19 years are living with HIV (1.5 million of whom reside in sub-Saharan Africa). Slightly more than half of all people living with HIV are women or girls. In sub-Saharan Africa, young women aged years are 8 times more likely than men to be HIV positive. 14 Source: UNAIDS. (2010).

Key Facts about Adolescents and HIV (Continued) Globally, deaths among children under 15 years of age are declining.  An estimated 260,000 children died from AIDS-related illnesses in 2009 — this is approximately 19% fewer deaths than occurred in  This trend reflects the expansion of PMTCT and an increase in access to antiretroviral treatment for children. 15 Source: UNAIDS. (2010).

Key Facts about Adolescents and HIV (Continued) [Add national epidemiological statistics here] 16

Global knowledge and behavior : Among young people in 15 of the most severely affected countries, HIV prevalence has fallen by more than 25% as young people have:  Adopted safer sexual practices, including increased condoms use  Delayed sexual debut  Reduced multiple partnerships 17 Key Facts about Adolescents and HIV (Continued) Source: UNAIDS. (2010).

Less than half of young people living in 15 high HIV prevalence countries can correctly answer 5 basic questions about HIV and its transmission. Young people living in the 25 countries with the highest HIV prevalence have shown gradually improving knowledge about HIV, but they still fall short of global targets and what is necessary to keep them safe. 18 Key Facts about Adolescents and HIV (Continued) Source: UNAIDS. (2010).

Young people are at the center of the HIV epidemic. They are particularly vulnerable to HIV infection due to social, political, cultural, biological, and economic reasons. 19 Why a Training on Adolescent HIV Care and Treatment?

Why a Training on Adolescent HIV Care and Treatment? (Continued) With increased access to pediatric HIV care and treatment, perinatally-infected children are living longer and reaching adolescence and adulthood. More young people are being tested for HIV because of increased awareness, reduced stigma, greater access and acceptance of testing, etc. Also, more adolescents who are pregnant are being tested for HIV through PMTCT programs. ALHIV face unique health, adherence, and psychosocial issues and challenges. 20

Why a Training on Adolescent HIV Care and Treatment? (Continued) Programs and clinical services need to be youth-friendly to attract and retain adolescent clients. There are successful models of adolescent HIV care and treatment services in many cities across high-, medium-, and low-prevalence countries. These models can be adapted and scaled-up nationally. Health workers need the knowledge and skills to meet the specific needs of adolescent clients. Young people are our future! 21

Adolescent HIV Care and Treatment Training Objectives By the end of this training, participants will be able to: 1. Describe the stages and characteristics of adolescence and the unique needs and challenges of adolescent clients 2. Implement strategies to make HIV-related services youth- friendly 3. Define and implement the package of HIV-related care and treatment services for adolescents 4. Implement effective communication and counseling skills with adolescent clients 5. Conduct a psychosocial assessment and provide ongoing psychosocial support services to adolescent clients 22

6. Describe the importance of mental health services for adolescent clients, recognize when a mental health problem may exist, and provide appropriate referrals and support 7.

Provide developmentally-appropriate disclosure counseling and support to adolescents and, where appropriate, their caregivers 9. Provide developmentally-appropriate adherence preparation and ongoing adherence support to adolescent clients and caregivers 23 Adolescent HIV Care and Treatment Training Objectives (Continued)

10. Support adolescents to live positively with HIV 11. Conduct sexual risk screening and provide non-judgmental, comprehensive counseling on sexual and reproductive health to adolescent clients 12. Provide basic, non-judgmental contraceptive counseling and services to adolescent clients 13. Describe the key components of PMTCT services for adolescents and provide referrals and support along the continuum of PMTCT care 14. Describe ways to link adolescents with needed facility and community-based support services 24 Adolescent HIV Care and Treatment Training Objectives (Continued)

15. Describe and implement activities to meaningfully involve adolescent clients in clinical services, such as through adolescent peer education programs 16. Prepare and support adolescent clients throughout the transition to adult care 17. Describe how monitoring and evaluation can be used to support adolescent HIV program improvements 18.

Core competencies focus on specific skills, whereas objectives are sweeping statements that provide a summary of what is to be taught.  There are 19 objectives for this course and approximately 60 competencies. Now turn to Appendix 15B: Practicum Checklist (in Module 15) to review the core competencies for this course. 26 Adolescent HIV Care and Treatment Core Competencies

Session 1.3: Training Pre-Test 32

Session 1.3 Objective After completing this session, participants will: Have completed the training pre-test 33

Pre-Test See Appendix 1B: Pre-Test. Do not write your name. Think of a 3 or 4 digit number (for example, 011 or 1972) and write it on the top of your pre-test.  Remember this number! (Write it on the inside front cover of your Participant Manual). The pre-test is to find out what the group as a whole knows about adolescent HIV care and treatment. The results will help us plan the training. You will take this same test again at the end of the training. You have 20 minutes to complete the pre-test. 34

Pre-Test Debriefing How did you feel about the pre-test questions? Were they easy or difficult? We will discuss the answers at the end of the training. 35 Remember: We are all here to learn and, by the end of the training, you will be able to answer all of these questions and many more!
