The Housing Aspects of AIDS and HIV Infection - A Manual for Housing Professionals (Paperback)

The needs of different individuals with AIDS and HIV vary considerably and depend not only on their health, but on their access to support, family, friendships and networks, and the security and suitability of their present housing. This manual is intended for authorities, groups and associations interested in the development of good practice in housing provision for people with HIV illness or AIDS. The information contained has been drawn from a two year study of the inter-relationship of housing and care provision in eight case study areas. The manual contains outlines of factors believed should be taken into account when making strategic and operational decisions, and, where possible, provides practical tools that will assist in the development of local strategies including action checklists. A report of the study on which this manual is based is also available (0-11-753053-0).
