The call to empower women has never been more urgent. We must act now to strengthen their capacity, resilience and leadership.

HIV/AIDS and You is written expressly for people with HIV/AIDS and their caregivers, friends ad family members, and will be invaluable to physicians who must struggle with the overwhelming demands of this rapidly changing field.
