Programs of HIV/STDThis site contains HIV prevention message that may not be appropriate for all audiences. The
mission of the HIV/STD section is to protect and preserve the health of Colorado, its
people and communities, by assuring a continuum of STD/HIV prevention, care
and treatment. We collaborate
in the provision of services, resources and leadership in support of a
statewide system to reduce the spread and complications of STD/HIV. The functions of the section include: surveillance of sexually
transmitted diseases and HIV infection; follow-up of persons diagnosed with
a sexually transmitted disease or HIV infection to ensure adequate treatment
and partner notification; access to care and treatment for persons with HIV
infection; development of comprehensive STD/HIV prevention programs;
collaborations with at-risk communities, non-governmental organizations, and
local health departments; training of medical providers and public health
professionals; and conducting research to enhance STD/HIV epidemiology and
prevention. This program is legislatively mandated by CRS Title 25 Article 1
Parts 107 and 122, CRS 18-1-et seq., and CRS 25-4-1401 et seq.
