Over the years, the Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention (DHAP) at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has developed a comprehensive program of HIV surveillance to collect, analyze, and disseminate data on HIV infection and infection classified as stage 3 (AIDS). Through HIV surveillance, DHAP monitors many facets of the trends in HIV infection in the United States. This fact sheet contains information on the HIV surveillance systems that DHAP currently supports. The data inform and guide the critical decisions that ensure HIV prevention funds are directed to those populations most affected by the disease.
