The first known cases of HIV in the United States occurred in the early 1980’s. As a result, large numbers of gay men in San Francisco and New York suddenly began to develop rare opportunistic infections and cancers developed that seemed stubbornly resistant to any conventional medical treatment. “Now over twenty years later, African Americans represents more than fifty percent of the new diagnosed cases of HIV/AIDS in the United States, per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In spite of the many health departments HIV awareness campaign ads HIV rates in Chicago continues to augment. In many black communities such as, North Lawndale, Garfield, Austin, and Englewood HIV along with other STD’s are on the rise”, said Gift House’s Executive Director Bruce Jackson, MPH, MEd.
