HIV Stigma Is Alive and Well

Despite wonderful advances in the clinical treatment of HIV disease, HIV stigma remains a serious problem. Recently the story of Rev. Dr. Robert Franke and his eviction from an Arkansas assisted living facility due to his HIV status has made the news. Standing Up To Stigma is a short video documentary of his story. Dr. Franke discusses his concerns about the impact of such behaviors for other older adults who may be less vocal self advocates.
