5 WE ARE ALL PRODUCTS OF OUR ENVIRONMENT
6 WE ARE ALL PRODUCTS OF OUR ENVIRONMENT THERE IN OUR PERCEPTIONS OF WHO WE ARE, HOW WE SEE OTHERS, AND OUR WILLINGNESS TO PROTECT LIES. OR VIOLATE THEIR HUMAN RIGHTS
7 THE FOUNDATION OF PREVENTION WALKING A MILE IN THEIR SHOES
8 IT S TIME FOR A REALITY CHECK
9 DEALING WITH THE DOUBLE STANDARD
10 SO..WHAT S DRIVING YOUR LEGISLATIVE DECISIONS? SO YOU THINK YOU KNOW HUMAN BEHAVIOR?
11 Sharing Beliefs.. But for Different Reasons
12
13 IF PREVENTION SAVES MONEY. WHY HAVEN T WE FOCUSED ATTENTION ON IT?
14 HIV/AIDS related Stigma is everywhere!
15 STIGMA IS EVERYWHERE! Individual Stigma Behaviors, thoughts, and feelings that express prejudices against Persons Living With HIV. IMPACT FEARING OF TELLING. REFUSAL TO GET TESTED FOR HIV! FAILURE TO SEEK MEDICAL TREATMENT OR CARE EVEN AFTER DIAGNOSIS. (Chesney & Smith, 1999). REFUSAL TO SEEK CARE FOR DEPRESSION, ANXIETY, AND EXPERIENCE GREATER SEVERITY OF LONELINESS. (Lee, Kochman & Sikkema, 2002). AFRICAN AMERICANS BECOME PART OF THE PROBLEM INSTEAD OF THE SOLUTION!
16 STIGMA IS EVERYWHERE! Cultural Stigma Emerges in the form of laws and policies that single out people with HIV in ways well beyond the demands of public health. IMPACT Laws; Policies; Popular Discourse- (Faith); Social Conditions of PWA s; Addressing Issues Related to Persons Higher At-Risk for HIV/STI Infection.

18 WE MUST CREATE POSITIVE SOLUTIONS AS WE CONFRONT POLITICS
19 WHILE CONFRONTING OUR PERSONAL FEARS AND LACK OF UNDERSTANDING
20 An Evolving Case Study SOUTH CAROLINA Ranks 9th in the nation in the rate of AIDS. The capitol, Columbia, ranks 6th in the nation in the rate of AIDS among larger MSA s. 74% of new HIV cases are among African Americans. 1st in the nation in heterosexual (male to female) transmission. 3rd in the nation in the proportion of African Americans that have AIDS.
21 SIGNIFICANT HEALTH DISPARITIES AND CONCERNS About 882 persons are newly diagnosed with HIV every year in South Carolina with over 22,000 individuals living with HIV/AIDS.

29 WHAT IS THE IMPACT OF APATHY?
30 SOUTH CAROLINA S WAIT LIST CRISIS LEGISLATORS MADE A DIFFERENCE
31 WHAT IS THE IMPACT OF OUR APATHY? LOSS OF LIFE A Cost of Illness Index suggests the economic impact of the HIV/AIDS epidemic in our state is astronomic, exceeding $6.5 billion in 2002.
32 THE COST OF HIV/AIDS IN SOUTH CAROLINA South Carolina HAD one of the largest wait lists for the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) in the country (600) HIV care and support services have been cut over $1 million in 2006, yet the number of persons served increased by 25% from S.C. HIV/AIDS Care Crisis Task Force, 2006
33 THE COST OF HIV/AIDS IN SOUTH CAROLINA According to a recent analysis* of South Carolina HIV and economic data for 2002: $151 million was spent for direct medical care for HIV patients. Nearly half (48%) was spent on hospitalizations, and Medicaid paid the largest percent of hospitalization charges (43%). The estimated foregone earnings of persons living with HIV in 2002 who were too ill to work exceeded $5.7 billion. The estimated Source: Kent Sock, MD. The Economic Impact of HIV/AIDS in South Carolina,, 2004

37 Community and Legislative Advocacy Made A Difference Investing in ADAP and HIV care will: Ø Save money - for Medicaid, hospitals, HIV care system, patients and families. Ø Help get people back to work - and off of public assistance programs, Medicaid. Ø Help prevent new infections - treatment lowers amount of virus. Ø Lengthen and improve lives - more years of earning potential. Ø Garner more federal funds - if S.C. gets more Ryan White funds, we ll need more state funds to meet the 50% state match requirement.

60 SO.LEGISLATORS CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE Keep abreast of current sexual health issues. Have your staff seek out service organizations in your district for up-dates and current issues; Assign your staff to set up an appointment to conduct an assessment and bring information back to you. Inquire about controversial concerns before they arrive at the legislature.
61 SO.LEGISLATORS CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE Examples: SC State HIV/AIDS Curriculum Standards STD-Prevention education is now MANDATORY for students in grades 6, 7 AND 8!.. They were amended to: Permit the instruction of pregnancy prevention in middle schools (at the discretion of the local school boards) and REQUIRE STD-prevention instruction in grades 6, 7 and 8! This mandates that all middle school students in South Carolina receive 3 separate courses in STD- prevention BEFORE they enter high school. For more go to
