HIV/AIDS Stigma Program
HIV/AIDS Stigma Program
The HIV/AIDS Stigma Program, funded by HRSA’s HIV/AIDS
Bureau under a Cooperative Agreement Grant, offers three individual trainings
that explore the stigma associated with HIV/AIDS. The trainings focus on how
stigma prevents people from seeking HIV testing, counseling, care and disclosing
their sero-positive status. Innovative approaches, such as the use of
evidenced-based practices, interactive activities, scientific research and data
are all incorporated into this training curriculum.
