 AB    The House of Tomorrow (HOT) is a project by Hotline Center Foundation.
       HOT is both shelter and training center where will be the first place
       runned by local Thai NGO in Northern Thailand. HOT had planned to serve
       distressed women and children in Northern Thailand. But, when AIDS hit
       Chiang Mai community, HOT is the only place that integrated place where
       AIDS and non-AIDS women can stay together appropriately and properly. At
       HOT, the women and children have choices for life since they first came
       in. After the process of interview and counselling, a baby is allowed to
       stay in HOT with an accompany only. The institution where referring each
       case have obligate to follow up their cases in HOT. HOT is the place
       where is harmonized to other Hotline psychological services. Each day,
       everybody has activity according to her skills. After, they finish their
       personal affairs, they get life education and psychotherapy, take care
       their babies, prepare themselves, go to work outside or start
       alternative occupational training. HOT staff and members learn to live
       positively and happily. We believe that any one who is HIV positive or
       not can live together in any community, if they have chance to choose
       for their lives. HOT is the model for GOs and NGOs who work for
       PWHIV/AIDS support in Northern Thaialnd.
