RESUMEN

The Emerging Issues Committee of the New York State HIV Prevention Planning Group identified that prevention messages were not including persons 50 and older and that 15 percent of the newly reported AIDS cases in 1997 in New York were in this age group. Recognizing that there may be unique needs in targeting prevention messages for this age group, a consultant conducted five focus groups throughout the state to speak with people to determine what they identified as unique themes related to HIV prevention for this age group.
