In our role as Gender advisor on the AIDSFree project, EnCompass developed this pocket guide to provide peer educators with tools to deliver training to prison inmates and staff about HIV and tuberculosis (TB) prevention and treatment. It contains six modules and was developed in both English and Swahili.
The objectives of the peer education program are to encourage behavior change among inmates and prison staff to reduce the risk of HIV and TB, to educate them about the contributing factors, and to encourage the use of available health services.
