Disclosure of HIV status to children is low. Caregivers educational status, caregivers discussion with health professional, older child, duration on ART of more than 5 year, getting treatment service from hospital, and having a treatment support group are factors that enable disclosure. Therefore, concerted efforts based on the findings of this study will be required to improve the disclosure status among HIV-positive children.
