Social Workers Speak out on the HIV/AIDS Crisis: Voices from and to African-American Communities

Autor Larry Gant, Vincent Lynch, Patricia Stewart
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 oct 1998 – vârsta până la 17 ani
Written by a team of nationally recognized African American social work professionals with extensive and distinguished backgrounds of HIV/AIDS service, the book examines the crisis facing African American communities. The editors strive to convey to academics, researchers, and students the magnitude of the crisis and that individuals and organizations serving African Americans need to be able to respond to the service delivery needs this crisis brings.The crisis is evident in the fact that by year 2000 fully 50% of all AIDS cases will be among African Americans-who only constitute 12% of the nation's population. This book serves as a wake-up call and is designed to stimulate discussion and planning for new models of service to all African Americans and HIV prevention, education, and treatment.
