The goal of the HIV Prevention Program is to stop the spread of
HIV. The Family Planning, STD and HIV Programs contract with
agencies such as District Health Departments and community-based
organizations to provide HIV prevention activities -some even
provide free HIV testing. The CDC just released new information
about HIV in older adults. National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS)
“The United States will become a place where new HIV infections
are rare and when they do occur, every person, regardless of
age, gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity
or socio-economic circumstance, will have unfettered access to
high quality, life-extending care, free from stigma and
discrimination." For more information on how to prevent HIV &
