Prevention IS Care


PIC Logo

Prevention IS Care (PIC) is a social marketing campaign developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for health care providers who deliver care to persons living with HIV. The goal of the campaign is to reach these providers and encourage them to screen their HIV patients for risky transmission behaviors and deliver brief messages on the importance of protecting themselves and others by reducing their risky transmission behaviors.

The campaign offers a Provider Resource Kit including evidence-based intervention tools to help health care providers simplify this process. There are also office posters, patient education materials and continuing education opportunities for providers offered in the kit.
