NACP- III

The National Aids Control Programme (NACP)- III was implemented from 2007. The overall goal of NACP-III is to halt and reverse the epidemic in India over the next five years by integrating programmes for prevention, care and support and treatment.
This will be achieved through a four-pronged strategy:

• Prevent infections through saturation of coverage of high-risk groups with targeted interventions (TIS) and scaled up interventions in the general population
• Provide greater care, support and treatment to larger number of PLHA
• Strengthen the infrastructure, systems and human resources in prevention, care, support and treatment programmes at district, state and national levels
• Strengthen the nationwide strategic information management system
