PS07-768 Expanded and Integrated Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Testing for Populations Disproportionately Affected by HIV, Primarily African Americans (October 2007 through September 2010), focused on the expansion of HIV testing to African Americans with emphasis on supporting the 2006 Revised Recommendations for HIV Testing of Adults, Adolescents, and Pregnant Women in Health- Care Settings. Funding for PS07-768 was awarded to the 25 jurisdictions with the highest burden of AIDS cases among African Americans.
