HIV Prevention: Community Home

Welcome to the HIV Prevention Community!



The mission of this community is:

* To unite a diverse group of HIV prevention implementers, academics, and policy makers around current issues in HIV prevention
* To exchange information and knowledge and to disseminate HIV prevention resources
* To provide actionable advice for HIV prevention implementers in order to enhance the effectiveness of programs on-the-ground

We are a new community and are in the process of building content. Please help us by contributing your own posts to this site. Your participation is vital so we can create an active community with a common understanding that there is an urgent need for effective HIV prevention efforts in order to stem the tide of the epidemic.
