LIMITATIONS
a drug treatment/half-way house in Morristown
Hopefully, this program will prevent the rapid spreading of HIV/AIDS throughout the homeless, recovering IDU, and African American population in Morristown. However, I realized that it will be extremely difficult to fully address and combat the issue of HIV/AIDS in African American populations without altering an entire mindset that has existed within this population for decades. There is not much one program can do about years of mistrust of a health care system and changing the social values of a culture. If homophobia and the lack of women to stand up to their male partners persists in the African American community, the AIDS epidemic will never end within this group.
