Detailed Description: A previous study found that HIV-infected villagers in Anhui Province China describe their quality of life as poor While poverty poor health stigma and discrimination contribute to this poor quality of life all these issues are interrelated and deserve further investigation The quality of life for HIV-infected people may be made better through education either for HIV-infected people to learn more about HIV the treatments they are receiving and how to deal with their disease or for HIV uninfected people to understand HIV infection and to reduce stigma and discrimination associated with HIV infection This study will provide skills training to HIV-infected adults and anti-stigma and anti-discrimination training to influential community members The purpose of this study is to evaluate the changes in quality of life in HIV-infected villagers living in Anhui Province China that result after these two training programs are administered
