ACRAM Foundation: Empowering Communities through Improved Health and HIV/AIDS Prevention and Care

Since its inception, the non–profit ACRAM Foundation has been striving to enhance the health and well–being of communities in Uganda. Addressing the HIV/AIDS pandemic and other health issues that are common in Uganda has been one of the foundation’s main areas of attention.

The HIV/AIDS epidemic has had a significant impact on Uganda, where there are currently an estimated 1.4 million individuals living with the illness as of 2021. Working closely with regional communities, medical institutions, and
governmental organizations, the ACRAM Foundation has been actively engaged in HIV/AIDS prevention, care, and treatment activities in Uganda.

Antiretroviral treatment (ART) for persons with HIV is one of the foundation’s main HIV/AIDS initiatives. With the help of ART, persons with HIV can live longer, healthier lives by suppressing the virus and lowering the risk of transmission. The ACRAM Foundation seeks to make ART  accessible to those in need and offers support services including counseling and education to aid HIV–positive individuals in maintaining their medication schedule.

The ACRAM Foundation targets maternal health concerns in Uganda in addition to HIV/AIDS. Despite recent advancements, Uganda still has high rates of maternal mortality, making
maternal health a crucial area of attention for ACRAM.
 
The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that Uganda had a maternal mortality rate of 336 per 100,000 live births in 2017. 211 deaths per 100,000 live births are the worldwide average; this rate is substantially higher. Hemorrhage, sepsis, obstructed labor, and hypertension are the primary causes of maternal mortality in Uganda.

By ensuring that women in Uganda have access to high-quality care and services, ACRAM seeks to enhance maternal health outcomes. Providing prenatal, postnatal, and maternal and
child health education programs are all included in this. Uganda has a wide range of health issues, including HIV/AIDS, maternal health, malaria, TB, pneumonia, and diarrheal illnesses. Although many of these ailments may be avoided or treated, they nonetheless cause a lot of disease and fatalities in Uganda.
These health issues are addressed by ACRAM through a variety
of programs and projects. To encourage healthy habits and practices, the organization runs health education and awareness programs. Through the provision of medical
supplies, equipment, and staff training, ACRAM also assists community health centers and hospitals. Additionally, ACRAM carries out research and assessment to recognize new health issues and provide workable remedies.
The health initiatives of the ACRAM Foundation are essential
to enhancing maternity and public health outcomes in Uganda. By way of its many programs, ACRAM offers vital care and services to local communities, lowering disease and enhancing the general health and well-being of Ugandan.
