The spread of HIV/AIDS threatens to take millions more lives, reverse development gains in dozens of poor countries and imperil progress on critical global issues. From Central Asia to Central America, Mercy Corps is not only supporting awareness and prevention, but also helping people with HIV/AIDS in their fight for dignity, justice and economic opportunity.
