摘要：

Organizations that provide services to HIV-positive persons or that are dedicated to reducing HIV transmission are beginning to use information technology in their work. We surveyed 88 AIDS Service Organizations (ASOs) in 42 U.S. states regarding their use of the Internet. Most ASOs allowed individuals to contact them via email and half provided computers for clients to access HIV-related information. One-third of the ASOs were conducting online HIV prevention programs. Most online programs employed an outreach model in chat rooms. American ASOs are enthusiastically forging ahead with online prevention. However, in most cases these activities would benefit from more refinement and formal evaluation.
