About this organization
Mission
To improve the public's awareness of family planning and reproductive health issues with education, training, research and other technical assistance.
About
The primary goal of the OMH Minority Community HIV/AIDS Project is to prevent increasing HIV health disparities among Latino/Hispanic college-bound youth. Cardea is working extensively with two minority universities and local community health centers in South Texas in implementing a range of educational and health promotion interventions (individual, group, campus-wide) to increase awareness among this vulnerable population; as well as promote HIV/STD screening and referral services for those testing HIV positive. During this reporting period, Cardea and its campus partners reached 1049 students through classroom/booth/project-led events, 106 HIV screening tests, and 174 students received risk reduction counseling. Milestones accomplished included development and pilot testing of a new curriculum tailored for male Latino students, training peer leaders on the existing curriculum for female students, completion of a digital storytelling project, acceptance of a professional presentation by the American Public Health Association, and initial development of the guidebook titled Addressing HIV/AIDS Prevention at Minority Colleges and Universities. All educational and service goals were surpassed.
