MSF has worked in Armenia since 1988

MSF provides STD treatment and voluntary counseling and testing for HIV in a clinic in Bagratashen (a town on the border between Armenia and Georgia) and also carries out prevention activities with sex workers in northern Armenia. In Berd, close to the border with Azerbaijan, MSF works with a local women's group to provide peer counseling for the community on family planning, safe pregnancy and newborn care. MSF runs an outpatient mental health center and offers occupational therapy at a day center in Sevan. Support for mental health services in Nagorno-Karabakh began in May 2003. In Yerevan, MSF has run a combined medical, psychological and social care program for young people in the Vardashan Institute since 1997. Work treating tuberculosis in Nagorno-Karabakh came to an end in December 2002.
