Today is World AIDS Day. Access to safe, stable housing has been a major issue facing PLWHA since the beginning of the epidemic. It is estimated that approximately half of the 1.2 million PLWHA in the U.S. will experience homelessness or housing

HIV/AIDS-related stigma and discrimination add additional barriers to accessing and maintaining housing.
