摘要
With the advent of highly effective antiretroviral therapies, case-finding for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is critically important, especially among high-risk youth. Our study found a significant increase in participation in voluntary HIV counseling and testing services immediately after implementation of a brief sexually transmitted infection (STI)/HIV educational program in alternative education and juvenile detention facilities.
