Summary

This study consists of a Cluster Randomised Trial (CRT) of community and facility-based HIVST distribution by the Society for Family Health (SFH) in multiple rural and peri-urban settings. The study will take place in 6 matched pairs of health facilities and their catchment areas have been selected for study inclusion in collaboration with the district medical office (DMO). One clinic catchment area from each pair will be randomly allocated to the HIVST arm (intervention) and the other to the standard of care (SOC) arm (Control).In the HIVST arm, community-based distribution agents (CBDA), including Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision (VMMC) mobilisers, will deliver HIVST kits. The kits will also be available at the health facility. In the SOC arm, all HIV testing and counseling (HTC) services will be conducted as currently.
