Description:
It has been more than 10 years since the first cases of AIDS were reported among correctional inmates. As of early 1993, there had been over 11,500 cases of the disease among inmates. In 1993, the World Health Organization (WHO) issued revised guidelines for addressing HIV/AIDS in correctional facilities. This information coupled with the Nat'l Institute of Justice and the Centers for Disease Control represents an important first step in developing a dialogue and, ultimately, a shared approach which advances both correctional and public health objectives.
