HIV Health Services
As many as one to one and a half million Americans may be infected with IRV - the virus that causes AIDS. HIV/AIDS affects every segment of the population no matter your gender, race, ethnic background or age.

The most hopeful fact about IRV infection is that it is preventable by means of education. Education enables individuals to make the wise decisions that will keep them healthy.
