Safe Life HIV/AIDS Prevention

The Safe Life HIV/AIDS prevention program offers education and intensive outreach services to adolescents and young adults within the community. Through educational sessions, the Safe Life Coordinator provides information about sexually transmitted diseases and specifically HIV/AIDS, risk factors and methods of prevention as well as referrals to community resources for follow up services. Rapid testing and counseling services are also available for all participants.

Since its inception in 2005, the program has educated thousands of adolescents and youth adults throughout the city of Chicago, through schools, social service agencies, churches, health fairs and youth summits.
