Abstract

Rates of pediatric human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) as well as mortality and morbidity related to HIV and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) depend, in part, on the resources available in the child’s country. HIV prevention and intervention efforts also are influenced by cultural factors. The purpose of this article is to summarize key findings from this special issue on international perspectives of HIV/AIDS in schools with a focus on neuropsychological and psychoeducational implications. After providing a brief summary of each article, we outline a call to action for school psychologists and educators.
