In 2008, there were more than a million persons with HIV/AIDS in the United States. The CDC (2007) estimates that 15% of persons with HIV/AIDS are over age 50. At greater risk are women of color. Most intervention efforts have focused on intrapersonal aspects of an individual and his or her sexual-risk behaviors, with little or no attention directed toward interpersonal and socioenvironmental considerations of risk and prevention. This paper considers the limitations of current national policies relating to HIV prevention in minority populations, especially among midlife and older women of color. In particular, this paper examines risk and prevention policies in light of ecological perspectives, social capital, and dialogical theories.
2008年，美国有超过100万人感染了艾滋病毒/艾滋病。美国疾病控制与预防中心（2007年）估计，15%的艾滋病毒/艾滋病感染者年龄在50岁以上。有色人种女性面临的风险更大。大多数干预措施都集中在个人的内在因素及其性风险行为上，很少或根本没有关注风险和预防的人际及社会环境因素。本文探讨了当前国家针对少数族裔人群，尤其是中年及老年有色人种女性预防艾滋病毒政策的局限性。特别是，本文从生态视角、社会资本和对话理论的角度审视了风险与预防政策。
