All newly hired correctional staff receive a three-hour AIDS training program during their 6-8 week academy training, and new supervisors receive further education to enable them to respond to staff questions about AIDS. Currently three AIDS educators provide "AIDS 101" presentations to residents of the five Philadelphia jails, providing information for the inmates that is specific to their environment such as the potential for contact with infected blood when sharing razor blades. The policy that initially met with the most hostility and generated the greatest controversy was the proposed distribution of condoms in the jails. Chief among the problems in setting up a voluntary HIV testing program was the issue of confidentiality; policy protects the confidentiality of inmates' HIV status by not sharing that information with the prison authorities.
