The Division of Community Health and Intervention Research/Center for AIDS Intervention Research

Welcome to the Division of Community Health and Intervention Research (CHAIR) and the Center for AIDS Intervention Research (CAIR). Established at MCW in 1990, CAIR has been continuously dedicated to the development, conduct, and evaluation of new strategies to prevent HIV among persons most vulnerable to the disease. With the expansion in 2023 to the Division of Community Health and Intervention Research, our research now also includes projects exploring ways to improve mental health and wellness, interventions to prevent or mitigate the effects of emerging diseases (e.g., COVID-19), and methods to encourage individuals and populations to protect themselves from adverse health conditions.
