HtW , in conjunction with the AIDS Healthcare Foundation , established a community clinic in Port-au- Prince , Klinik Solidarite ( Solidarity Clinic ), for previously incarcerated individuals . This Clinic accepts persons with HIV , incompletely treated TB or both after their release . Services at the clinic can help released persons continue the treatment that they started while in prison . Persons who have not completed TB treatment at the time of release are informed about how to connect with the clinic upon discharge .
