Assisting Directly Funded AIDS Directors in Urban Jurisdictions and Other HIV Prevention Partners in Meeting the Changes in the Public Healthcare Systems and HIV Prevention Landscape: the world’s attention. The epidemic has claimed the lives of 636,000 Americans and affects many more. HIV infection remains a major public health issue in the United States. In 2011, an estimated 49,273 people were diagnosed with HIV infection in the United States and an estimated 32,052 people were diagnosed with AIDS. Since the epidemic began, an estimated 1,155,792 people in the United States have been diagnosed with AIDS. CDC estimates that 1,148,200 persons aged 13 years and older are living with HIV infection. Of this, 207,600 (18%) are unaware of their infection. Over the past decade, the number of people living with HIV increased, while the annual number of new HIV infections remained relatively stable. Still, the pace of new infections continues at far too high a level—particularly among certain groups particularly ethnic minority populations: African Americans and Hispanics/Latinos; and men who have sex with men (MSM) and injection drug users (IDU) regardless of race or ethnicity. In 2010, the Office of National AIDS Policy at the White House published the National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS) to frame the work around domestic HIV prevention, care, treatment, and research. NHAS’ vision is to reach a point where the United States becomes a place where new HIV infections are rare and when they do occur, every person, regardless of age, gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or socio-economic circumstance, will have unfettered access to high quality, life-extending care, free from stigma and discrimination. NHAS’ primary goals are to: 1) reduce HIV incidence, 2) increase access to care and optimize health outcomes, and 3) reduce HIV-related health disparities.
