Expertise on Public Health Strategies
Social Network Strategy (SNS)
The Social Network Strategy (SNS) is an evidence supported approach to recruiting high-risk people. SNS is based on the underlying principles that people in the same social network share the same risks and risk behaviors for HIV.

Anti-Retroviral Treatment and Access to Services (ARTAS)
This intervention is an individual-level, multi-session, time-limited intervention with the goal of linking recently diagnosed persons with HIV to medical care soon after receiving their positive test result.

Couples HIV Testing and Counseling (CHTC)
Couples HIV Testing and Counseling (CHTC) occurs when two or more persons who are in—or are planning to be in—a sexual relationship receive all elements of HIV testing and counseling together. This includes HIV prevention counseling, receipt of test results, and linkage to follow-up services.
