Disease Intervention Training Centers (DITCs) serve to strengthen the capacity of local and state health departments to conduct STD/HIV intervention services.

Disease intervention training covers the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to conduct STD and HIV intervention services efficiently and effectively.
