"Dynamics of the 1999 AIDS Walk in 31 First Nations communities: The community within the community"

Abstract

The Atlantic First Nations region consists of 31 distinct Maliseet and Mi'kmaq Nations with populations ranging from 60 to almost 3,000. HIV/AIDS has found its way into several Atlantic First Nation communities. It can probably be assumed that all of these communities, at one time or another, will have members who are affected by this disease.
