This paper aims to sketch the self reported family environment of 60 rural women afflicted by HIV/AIDS and undergoing Antiretroviral Therapy. Data collection involved the use of ‘Demographic Profile Sheet’ and ‘Family Environment Scale’. Results portray a distinctive profile of the affected woman as illiterate, monogamous, single, or aged between 40-50 years and belonging to low-income group. Whatever remains of their family environment is ridden by conflicts, leaving no opportunity for personal growth and pursuit of leisure. Although only a pen picture, these findings invite ecosystems therapies for enablement of the affected women to raise their voice against HIV/AIDS in the country. |
