HIV/AIDS Education

Attention: open in a new window. PrintE-mail

The health crisis of HIV/AIDS is increasing in our Indian Communities while many may believe it is declining due to new medication available.  Recent data shows the infection rate increasing in minority populations, women, injection users and adolescents.  To learn more about current statistics and upcoming conferences check out the web site for National Native American AIDS

The California Rural Indian Health Board, Inc. is the educational training partner working with UC-Irvine on an educational project as a Subcontractor to provide  HIV/AIDS education and training to medical providers, CHR’s, dentists and other interested personal.  The project has been funded and approved by HRSA supplemental funding through the Pacific AIDS Education and Training Center.  If your agency is interested in hosting a no cost training, please contact Barbara Hart at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
