  • As of September 30, 2020, 14,880 people in Colorado are living with HIV. 
  • Latinos* represent 23% of the population living with HIV, but only represent nearly 22% of Colorado’s population overall, making our comunidad disproportionately affected by HIV, and at higher risk of contracting the virus.
  • With specialized and culturally responsive care, Latinos living with HIV have been able to lead all ethnic groups in achieving viral suppression, positively affecting their health and minimizing transmission risks to others.
