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!
