HIV and Aging Survey

Shannon Southall, Executive Director of Rocky Mountain Cares is looking for people who are over 40 and living with HIV who would be interested in taking a 10 minute survey on HIV and Aging.

Southall will be presenting at the United States Conference on AIDS in September along with Dr Ben Young. At 48 years old, Southall has  been living with HIV for almost 22 years. Says Southall, "By 2016 they estimate that over 50% of those of us living with HIV will be over 50. I want to be able to share real stories and information to educate both medical providers and case managers, social workers etc about the real issues that we deal with as we grow older with HIV."
