From the deaths of a few young gay white men in 1981, to epidemic and pandemic proportions today, HIV/AIDS is a devastating public health challenge that disproportionately impacts communities of color in this country and throughout the globe. This one-hour program from the University at Albany School of Public Health’s “Public Health Live – T²B²” Series, addresses where the public health community is now, 25 years into this devastating global public health problem.

After viewing this program, learners will be able to understand:

• Statistics of HIV/AIDS over the last 25 years
• Current trends and how they affect women and minorities
• What is or isn't being done to alleviate the problem
• What public health and other practitioners can do to be supportive

Public health practitioners, nurses, health information providers, policy makers, HIV/AIDS advocates, and minority health specialists will be interested in this program.
