HIV/AIDS Consumer Guide

SAMHSA’s Knowledge Application Program (KAP) has published a brochure explaining the increased risk of HIV transmission among people who abuse substances.

The brochure, Drugs, Alcohol and HIV/AIDS: A Consumer Guide for African Americans, includes hotline numbers and Web sites to help people find health care and treatment. The publication accompanies Substance Abuse Treatment for Persons with HIV/AIDS, number 37 in the Treatment Improvement Protocol (TIP) series from SAMHSA’s Center for Substance Abuse Treatment.
