New hopes for tackling HIV/AIDS in the USA.

摘要

At Metro Teen AIDS' Freestyle Youth Center in Washington, DC, a positive HIV test result occurs every few months. "They usually get this calm, 'what am I suppose to do?' kind of look", Fushena Cruickshank, the group's leadership development coordinator, says of the infected adolescents. Fortunately, if there is a good place to get that kind of news, these kids have found it. A combination hang out and education centre, six blocks from the US Capitol, Metro TeenAIDS provides safe sex strategies for all young people aged 13-24 years as well as links to services ranging from clinical care to transportation to housing for HIV-positive young people.
