The CDC works with other federal agencies, state and local health departments, national organizations, and other entities to reduce the spread of HIV in the United States. This work covers several components:
Behavioral interventions — These interventions ensure people have the information, motivation and skills necessary to reduce the risk of infection. HIV testing — Testing is critical to prevent the spread of HIV. Treatment and care — Treatment and care enable individuals with HIV to live longer, healthier lives.
This approach is designed to maximize the impact of prevention efforts for all Americans at risk for HIV infections and the CDC is aligning its efforts with the first National HIV/AIDS Strategy for the United States (NHAS).
