EDC/HHD is collaborating with Mith Samlanh, a local not-for-profit organization in Phnom Penh that runs programs for children orphaned by HIV and living on the streets. Through this partnership, Mith Samlanh works to reintegrate these children into society so that they are able to resume productive lives and leave the streets. The program’s key objectives are to identify children affected by AIDS on the streets and in hospitals; provide emotional support; assist them in their reintegration into society through education and training; and place them with either extended family members or suitable foster care.
