Educational Strategies and Interventions Targeting Adults Age 50 and Older for HIV/AIDS Prevention

This article discusses the need for targeting adults age 50 and older for HIV/AIDS prevention education. First, the authors consider a variety of educational strategies that can address both primary prevention (risk reduction) and secondary prevention (prompt identification and treatment) with regard to older adults. Examples of existing prevention education programs designed for older adults are presented together with a discussion of what has been learned about effective educational strategies and interventions among other targeted groups. Finally, suggestions are made for future research needed to help design and implement effective HIV/AIDS education programs for older adults.
