Patricia
While doing her ninth grade, at the age of 15, Patricia became pregnant and stopped attending school. After seven months of pregnancy, she repeatedly began falling ill and as a result she ended up giving birth to a still baby. She made a decision to visit YMCA peer educators who advised her to go for voluntary Counselling and Testing. She found that she was HIV positive. Currently, Patricia is a YMCA student taking a fashion design tailoring course.
