向艾滋病毒抗体阳性者提供服务或致力于减少艾滋病毒传播的组织正开始在其工作中使用信息技术。我们调查了美国42个州的88个艾滋病服务组织（ASO）对互联网的使用情况。大多数艾滋病毒/艾滋病服务组织允许个人通过电子邮件与他们联系，一半的组织为客户提供计算机，以获取与艾滋病毒有关的信息。三分之一的ASO正在开展在线艾滋病毒预防计划。大多数在线程序在聊天室中采用外展模式。美国的ASO正在积极推进在线预防。然而，在大多数情况下，这些活动将受益于更多的完善和正式评价。(C)出版社：The Haworth Press，Inc. All rights reserved.
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.
