Elements of a Just Criminal Law Response to Allegations of NonConsensual Exposure to a Serious Infectious Disease: A Guide For Policy Makers is excerpted from CHLP's Community Advocate Toolkit, a go-to resource for community advocates working on state-level HIV criminalization modernization efforts. This quick-reference resource comes from a proposed report that The Center for HIV Law and Policy prepared for UNAIDS following a series of meetings involving legal and scientific professionals knowledgeable in HIV law, policy and science; and government officials and policy makers from around the globe in 2011-2012.
The Center for HIV Law and Policy challenges barriers to the rights and health of people affected by HIV through legal advocacy, high-impact policy initiatives, and creation of cross-issue partnerships, networks, and resources. We support movement building that amplifies the power of individuals and communities to mobilize for change that is rooted in racial, gender, and economic justice.
