Abstract
Drug abuse and the spread of HIV/AIDS are intertwined public health problems that require many and multifaceted solutions. Behavioral and social science research plays an important role in helping us to understand and develop solutions to these related epidemics. Behavioral research supported by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) has demonstrated that drug users are amenable to behavior change strategies. Drug abuse treatment, prevention and community-based outreach programs have all been found to be effective in reducing drug use, needle-sharing practices, unsafe sex behaviors, as well as risk for HIV infection.
