Welcome!

The mission of stopHIV.com is to help facilitate a united front in the fight against HIV in Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. With guidance from the PA Department of Health, this Website serves as a portal for government, academic and community stakeholders—where the HIV prevention and care community can share important resources and information.

stopHIV.com was created by the HIV Prevention and Care Project (HPCP) at the University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health, as part of our efforts to assist the Pennsylvania Department of Health in their HIV prevention and care community planning process. In addition to the Website, the HPCP also provides additional initiatives regarding HIV prevention and care resources in the State.
