Who is the intended audience for the new partner services recommendations?
A. The audience for the new recommendations for HIV/STD partner services is health department program managers responsible for overseeing partner services programs for HIV and other STDs at the state and local levels. While CDC anticipates that various service organizations and providers will have some interest in the content of the new, integrated recommendations for HIV and STD partner services, recommendations in this document are intended primarily to help program managers plan, implement, and evaluate partner services provided to persons with HIV and other STDs and their partners. For example, program managers can use the document to help plan and manage prevention efforts, target resources, establish program priorities, and develop program policies. In addition, the recommendations should influence the design of training curricula for future partner service programs and activities.
