Abstract	This idea book offers practical strategies for assessing and responding to the effects of HIV on each of the Peace Corps' project areas, including agriculture and environment, small enterprise development, health, youth, and education. It also offers examples of creative and effective strategies used by Peace Corps volunteers to integrate the issue of HIV into their activities through collaboration with other sectors or by designing activities targeting those most affected by AIDS. The book presents information on HIV/AIDS project design within the community, focusing on elements of the planning process, pre-activity learning and groundwork, and establishing direction/content. It goes on to examine potential obstacles and how to deal with them (e.g., fear of infection, cultural dissonance, and frustration, sadness, feelings of being overwhelmed, and apathy). An annotated listing of additional resources on HIV and AIDS is included. (SM)
