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.

Letters and Other Advocacy Documents

This compilation of personal stories interspersed with factual information regarding various aspects of women's experience with HIV/AIDS aims to help HIV-positive women learn from the similar experiences of others. Included are sections on disclosure, pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding, relationships, sex and sexuality, women in prison, sex work, grief, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. This resource is geared specifically toward HIV-positive women, but will also provide service providers and advocates with valuable insights.
