“…Until late 2013, in South Carolina, incarcerated individuals with HIV/AIDS were segregated, denied work releases and food-related prison jobs, and identified as having HIV/AIDS on their name badges (American Civil Liberties Union [ACLU], 2010; United States Department of Justice, 2013). Even without segregation, and in spite of a limited number of innovative peer-based programs such as the ACE Program at Bedford Hills Correctional Facility and the CAE Program at Taconic Correctional Facility (Colica, 2012), individuals with HIV/AIDS in correctional settings have reported fearing or experiencing isolation, rejection, and discrimination by corrections staff and other prisoners, resulting in some choosing to conceal their status (ACLU, 2010; Derlega, Winstead, Gamble, Kelkar, & Khuanghlawn, 2010). …”

Being disproportionately represented by individuals living with HIV/AIDS, correctional facilities are an important venue for potentially invaluable HIV/AIDS epidemiological and intervention research. However, unique ethical, regulatory, and environmental challenges exist in these settings that have limited the amount and scope of research. We surveyed 760 HIV/AIDS researchers, and IRB chairs, members, and prisoner representatives to identify areas in which additional training might ameliorate these challenges. Most commonly identified training needs related to federal regulations, ethics (confidentiality, protection for participants/researchers, coercion, privacy, informed consent, and general ethics), and issues specific to the environment (culture of the correctional setting; general knowledge of correctional systems; and correctional environments, policies, and procedures). Bolstering availability of training on the challenges of conducting HIV/AIDS research in correctional settings is a crucial step toward increasing research that will yield significant benefits to incarcerated individuals and society as a whole.
