We won’t start to see a real dent in reducing HIV in the Black community until minority community based agencies that are on the frontline of addressing the epidemic receive the financial resources to provide direct evidence based interventions and services that focus on the “real life” issues that contribute to the disproportionate impact the AIDS epidemic is having on minority communities. For Us, By Us, is more than a slogan, it’s a proven approach that works.
