BACKGROUND

SHDEPHA+ is an acronym for Service, Health, and Development for People living with HIV/AIDS. It is a national non-governmental organization, registered on 21 November 1994 with registration number SO 8216. SHDEPHA+ originated from the initiatives of fifteen people living with HIV/AIDS whose goal was to create a network and to mobilize resources to help people living with HIV/AIDS and to fight the spread of the disease. Although originally focusing on people living with HIV/AIDS, over the years SHDEPHA+ has expanded beyond HIV/AIDS and related issues to other development interventions and now covers both infected and affected by HIV/AIDS with over 65 branches countrywide. Each branch of SHDEPHA+ works independently, developing, managing and implementing its own projects; though all branches share one constitution and registration.

SHDEPHA+ Kahama is currently implementing 8 health related projects in 8 regions of Tanzania mainland (includes Arusha, Shinyanga, Geita, Singida, Simiyu, Tabora, Mwanza and Morogoro), with its headquarter in Kahama , Shinyanga Tanzania with a total number of 85 staff located in the mentioned regions, and over 585 community volunteers.
