At first, she set up the program to help other widows cope with the aftermath, but TASO has blossomed into a service organization for all levels of people that provides education, condoms, counseling, medical care and social support. Morales says even with particular culture beliefs, the Ugandans are not prohibited from discussing AIDS issues that are considered taboo in other cultures. They have public demonstrations on how to use condoms. I ve given HIV presentations at public schools in this country and could not talk about sex or condom use. TASO has no public funds to keep them going.
Most money comes from private donations.
These people do so much with practically nothing. Morales will extend her study of the quality of life among HIV women to the United States.
