Policy Brief: Bolstering Latinx Gay and Bisexual Men to Reduce HIV Transmission

Mar 18, 2019 | Kim Rodgers

In March 2019, the O’Neill Institute released the policy brief, Bolstering Latinx Gay and Bisexual Men to Promote Health and Reduce HIV Transmission. This policy brief explores the health and social factors that contribute to HIV risks among Latinx gay and bisexual men. One in five new HIV diagnoses in 2017 in the United States were among Latinx gay and bisexual men. While HIV rates are stable, or falling in other groups, they rose by 12% among these men from 2012-2016. Developed in partnership with Bienestar Human Services, this brief highlights strategic actions that policy makers and others can take to ensure that Latinx gay and bisexual men are benefitting from the exciting advances in HIV prevention and care.
