120920. The Legislature hereby finds and declares that people with HIV infection may not avail themselves of early intervention services unless they are aware of the availability of the services and the efficacy of early intervention in prolonging life. This awareness by HIV-infected persons is critical to maximizing the benefits of early intervention. Therefore, it is the intent of the Legislature that the department includes early intervention education as a component of information and education grants in the first grant cycle following enactment of Sections 120900 to 120920, inclusive.
