| Abstract
|
:
|
HIV and AIDS take a profound toll on families. When a family member becomes sick or dies, everyone in the family suffers. In 2001, the United Nations General Assembly Special Session on HIV/AIDS recognized the important role played by the family in prevention, care and support; this publication addresses the issues and challenges of HIV/AIDS from a family perspective, using information and data from sub-Saharan Africa.--Publisher's description.
