Abstract

Can combining HIV testing with legal support help pregnant women disclose their HIV status safely to their partners? Suzanne Maman and her colleagues describe the South Africa HIV Antenatal Care Post-Test Support Study (SAHAPS), a unique intervention to include legal education and referral with a package of post-test support services in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
