I am doing research on the effects of Buddy Programs on persons with 
HIV/AIDS---if having a Buddy has any effect on the HIV progression, on the
PWA's quality of life, general disposition, etc.

I have found only one article that mentions a Buddy Program;  does anyone
know of any research that has been done on Buddies, or more generally, 
any type of social support and HIV/AIDS?

Thank you!!
