Implementing Structure

The Provincial HIV/AIDS Program is implemented by a network of government agencies, headed by the Provincial Government in partnership with UNFPA-Technical Asssistance Program. The non-government sector is represented by the organizations of adolescents at the provincial and community level. The vulnerable sectors-the Butterfly Brigade (a gay group) and the PLHAS (People Living with HIV/AIDS)-form part of the implementing structure and are among the most active program partners. The existence of Municipal and Barangay-level Reproductive Health Information and Advocacy Units (MIATS/BIATS) formed since the 5th Country Programme of Assistance facilitate the implementation of services at the community level.
Unique to the Aklan Provincial AIDS Council, The Council has a built in Technical Working Group, in such that THE COUNCIL is made up of the heads of offices and therefore the POLICY Making force, while each agency member has a permanenetly assigned representative that works as a member of the variuos technical working groups, that ACTUALLY implement the mandates of the Council.
