Prevention and Access to Care and Treatment (PACT)
  • The Care Coordination program adopts principles from the Prevention and Access to Care and Treatment (PACT) Project PACT is modeled on a Haitian DOT-HAART program launched in 1998 using accompagnateurs to educate and provide psychosocial support to HIV-infected patients via home visits.  In 2002, PACT Project started in inner-city Boston and adopted community health promoters & introduced Directly Observed Therapy (DOT) Specialists to increase antiretroviral adherence and promote self-sufficiency.


  • Basic Principles of PACT include:
    • Curriculum-based skills building.
    • Intensive home-based weekly health promotion.
    • Home-based DOT.
    • Accompaniment to medical visits by a Health Promoter to serve as a patient navigator, coach, and advocate.
