Prevention is the Focus for Us

I recently attended a conference in San Francisco.  Much of the conference focused on mobile and interface design, and my session focused on health care and technology services in underserved communities.

I presented on my work on myHealthImpactNetwork, and the team’s goal to get the word out about HIV/AIDS among the young people, particularly Black female college students.

Prevention…prevention…prevention is the focus for us, and the young people are involved and engaged in this project!  I am delighted to see this happen.  After one conference session, I took a brisk walk to get some fresh air.

Always looking up, I spotted the sign below from greaterthan.org clearly stating that San Francisco is greater than AIDS!  I text this to my research scholars, and Khalia indicated that she noticed the same signs in Washington, D.C.  She noticed!
