Organizational Imperatives and Policy Perspective of AIDS Community-Based Organizations: A View from the States

AIDS & Public Policy Journal 14, no. 1 (Spring 1999): 3-19
L. Robins and C. Backstrom

This article deals with many of the issues covered in the literature, emphasizing their political and policy dimensions. However, its focus is the attitudes of AIDS CBOs toward their public policy and political environments insofar as they affect AIDS. Moreover, this study does not consider the effects of AIDS CBOs on national government policy making, and it is not a report of case studies of famous AIDS community based organizations (CBOs). Instead, this is a nationwide study that deals with politics and policy making at the state level as seen by state and local AIDS CBOs.
