 hen the United Nations Security Council held its first meeting of the 21st century, its concern was not nuclear war or international terrorism, but HIV/AIDS.
The pandemic threatens not only millions of lives, but global security. Nations, communities, and families have lost the leaders of today and tomorrow. Healthcare systems have been overwhelmed, economies undermined, and schools robbed of both students and teachers.
The HIV/AIDS epidemic challenges Christians to respond with the uncompromising truth and unconditional love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
In 2002, Samaritan's Purse hosted Prescription for Hope™, an unprecedented global Christian Conference on HIV/AIDS held in Washington, D.C. Since that time, Prescription for Hope™, has become a comprehensive HIV/AIDS program to strengthen the international Christian response to HIV/AIDS; mobilize private, church, corporate, and government resources; and develop a unified plan to defeat HIV/AIDS.
Abstinence and Behavior Change Programs for Youth
Across the globe, people aged 10-24 have some of the highest rates of HIV infection, and the numbers continue to rise. To combat this trend, Prescription for Hope offers a Biblically based curriculum to mobilize, equip, and train (MET) youth to make healthy choices.
Workshops for Church Leaders
Prescription for Hope™ offers workshops to church leaders of various backgrounds to teach them how to develop positive, nondiscriminatory, culturally relevant approaches to HIV/AIDS in their communities.
Support for Mission Hospitals
Working through World Medical Mission, the medical arm of Samaritan's Purse, Prescription for Hope™ supports HIV/AIDS prevention, testing, and treatment programs in mission hospitals worldwide.
