Abstract
The state of New Jersey, which now ranks fifth in the United States in total AIDS cases, has been especially motivated to develop a network of programs aimed toward curbing its own AIDS crisis. While the risk groups in the state are similar to those of the nation's overall, infection contracted via intravenous drug use comprises the majority of cases in New Jersey. The state has made great strides in addressing the problem of AIDS in this particular population, and its program is a model for other states to use or improve upon as the disease becomes more widespread.
