Doing a project on HIV/AIDS

The HIV/AIDS section of this website provides detailed information on what is HIV/AIDS and how it is transmitted, getting tested, and treatment options.

The CAN Resource Centre has an extensive library and numerous resources on HIV/AIDS that students can borrow and look through. All you need to do is drop into the centre, and we'll help you find all the information you need.

You can also ask a question and one of the CAN staff will get back to you quickly with the answer.
