Yolanne Almanzar and Stephanie Garay will cover programs that assist newly released HIV-positive inmates from South Florida jails. These linkage programs test and counsel for HIV/AIDS and other communicable diseases. Then, it follows up to make sure that the newly released inmates know where to receive treatment after they have been released back into their communities. The programs are federally funded and operate through the Florida Department of Health.
We have left messages with several programs in Broward and Miami-Dade counties because we would like to do interviews on-site for our video. We have also tried to contact a director of another program that is funded through a grant that performs the same services for newly released inmates.
