Publisher's Synopsis

In the United States, migrant workers are a hidden and sometimes maligned population with limited access to health and welfare services, including HIV prevention. This book brings together seven research studies to provide a profile of the HIV prevention, surveillance and treatment needs of migrant workers.;The three editors combine their own extensive work with that of nationally and internationally recognized experts to provide a comprehensive analysis of the HIV epidemic among migrant workers, looking at perceptions of risk, sexual beliefs and practices, effects of migration on changing risk profiles, prevention efforts, and policies and programmes that may stem the spread of HIV among this population. The book includes, in addition to researchers' views, the perspectives of migrant workers and policy-makers on HIV prevention policies and programmes.
