Research Projects and Other initiatives The AIDS Prevention and Control (APAC) The AIDS Prevention and Control (APAC) project is administered by the Voluntary Health Services (VHS), Chennai with financial assistance from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), under a tripartite agreement with the Government of India. APAC project has been implementing STI/HIV/AIDS prevention and control programs in Tamil Nadu since 1995 and in Puducherry from 2002. TAI / VHS Project The Project was initiated in July 2004. ARCOD has been working with female sex workers in Krishnagiri District towards prevention of HIV/AIDS. The project is being successfully implemented in Krishnagiri, Kaveripattinam, Uthangarai, Barugur, Veppanapalli, Kelamangalam and Mathur blocks of Krishnagiri district. ARCOD identified about 2800 sex workers in these 7 blocks of the district. ARCOD has established a field team and clinics to provide health education and treatment for STI to the sex workers. We have one clinic in Uthangarai with trained medical team. VHS-YRG Care Medical Centre The VHS-YRG Care Medical Centre, set up in VHS with the support of the Y.R. Gaitonde Centre for AIDS Research and Education, has a 24-bed ward and a day care centre that treats AIDS patients. Other than Government Hospitals, VHS is the one of the very few private hospitals to take care of HIV / AIDS patients. Rotary Central-TTK-VHS Blood Bank The idea of a non-commercial blood bank run purely on voluntary blood donation was conceived by VHS in 1962, and it started working in 1963 with voluntary blood donors. Over the years, the Blood Bank has widened its scope of activities by supplying quality and safe blood to outside hospitals as well. 49
