Abstract

Family Health International (FHI) is a nonprofit research and technical assistance organization dedicated to improving lives worldwide through a highly diversified program of research, education and services in family health. FHI designs, manages, and evaluates international HIV/AIDS-related programs that are broad in scope, encompassing prevention as well as care and support services for people living with or affected by HIV/AIDS. FHI conducts research to evaluate new approaches for reducing viral spread. FHI also helps assure the availability of effective, safe, acceptable and affordable contraceptive products, methods and services. With an emphasis on developing country programs, FHI responds to many of the world’s most vulnerable groups by promoting better access to quality services and to a range of contraceptive choices. FHI’s work is managed through two interacting institutes; the Family Health Institute and the FHI AIDS Institute. In addition, there are management centers in Bangkok and Nairobi. These centers are responsible for the implementation of programs through local offices in over 50 countries.
