Tools for Working with Couples
HIV/AIDS affects many married and unmarried couples. During the course of their relationship couples may experience a number of challenges, from getting tested and living with their results to struggling to remain faithful and dealing with a partner's infidelity or illness. HIV positive couples who want to start a family will also be concerned about preventing transmission to their children. The impact of HIV/AIDS on a relationship cannot be underestimated, and many couples need assistance in handling the strain that such a serious disease can have on their partnership.
For those seeking to help couples, it is important to select tools that will stimulate conversation and break down personal barriers to living a healthy life. The tools provided in this category will assist small group facilitators, pre-marital and couple counselors, and faith-based leaders in providing information and facilitating conversations on HIV and AIDS. The role plays and dramas included in these tools model healthy behaviour and will help couples improve their communication skills.
