Care & Support cell is established to enhance the reach of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives taken for the benefit of People Living with HIV (PLH). First of such initiative under Care & Support cell was setting up of TAAL (Treatment, Adherence, Advocacy and Literacy) center in January 2006 at Pune in association with INP+ and NMP+.

Apart from Pune, TAAL centers are operational at Nagpur, Kalyan, Kolhapur and Panvel. TAAL has been receiving encouraging response from all parts of Maharashtra. More than 2800 clients are registered at TAAL and over 1000 clients are accessing services. Clients visiting TAAL centers are briefed about various sources of availing medicines, including Govt. run free ART centers and are linked to these centers as per their choice.
