Research Advocacy for HIV Prevention


We know that HIV prevention works - but we also know we need more of it, and a greater variety of interventions and tools. However, research that is needed to provide these advances has been nearly eliminated in the United States, even though the CDC is expected to soon announce an increase in the number of new annual infections. The need for prevention research advocacy is more urgent than ever.
