Connect To Protect Program

Today's Young people face many health risks. Protecting the well being of adolescents and young adults has always come naturally to those closest to them. As a result, families, peers, community leaders, local organizations, service providers, and social and spiritual institutions all have a wealth of knowledge to share about caring for these age groups. Similarly, health researchers have worked for years to identify the most promising ways to prevent adolescent and young adult illness and disease. Independently, communities and researchers have made important contributions to protecting young people's health. Imagine the possibilities for creating and enacting powerful solutions with meaningful collaboration.
 
Researchers are adolescent medicine specialist from your city.  They are dedicated to working with the community to prevent illness and disease in your people.
As part of the nationwide "Adolescent Medicine Trials Network for HIV/AIDS Interventions," they have experience in:
  • Caring for youth with HIV
  • Searching for ways to keep HIV from spreading among adolescents and young adults
  • Ensuring that young people are offered the opportunity to be represented in research ranging from HIV prevention to treatment and care.
