The HIV Prevention Workshops aim to give street youth the knowledge and skills they need to stay HIV-negative. In addition to raising awareness of HIV/AIDS, its transmission, and the risks associated with drug use, the workshops help youth develop refusal skills and understand the importance of avoiding activities that may place them at risk for infection. The workshops also aim to promote tolerance and fight the stigma and discrimination experienced by those living with HIV/AIDS.
