Community Action refers to both
a strong community-based response to the needs of persons infected
with or affected by hepatitis C, as well as a strong role for community
organizations in the national Hepatitis C Program. The activities
under this component contribute to gaining a better understanding
of the nature and effects of hepatitis C infection and how communities
can provide support to those who are infected with or at increased
risk of contracting hepatitis C.
Legend:
HCV = Hepatitis C virus
IDU = injection drug use
