HIV Center

Mental Health and Mental Illness

Overview current Professional Background

Mental illness and mental health are intricately interwoven with sexual risk for both uninfected and infected populations and have been an important research emphasis of HIV Center investigators. Early work among the severely mentally ill in New York City has resulted in the adaptation of innovative interventions in mental health care settings. The Family Studies Program has focused on understanding mental health needs of families and children affected by HIV.
