While three-quarters of adolescents and young adults say they know at least “something” about STDs and HIV/AIDS and one-quarter say they know “a lot,” half of those surveyed did not know that 25 percent of sexually active young people contract an STD, and one-third were unaware that people their age account for 50 percent of all new HIV infections.
The Investing in Girls Alliance conducted a survey in the fall of 2008 to find out what programs for girls are being offered locally. If you know of a program that should be on this list please email info [at] investingingirls [dot] org we would be more than happy it to add to this list!
