Adolescents And AIDS: A Generation in Jeopardy - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The AIDS epidemic is approached by the contributors to this unique resource as a social and developmental crisis that a particularly vulnerable population - adolescents - are ill-prepared to address. The volume not only discusses adolescents in general but includes specific chapters on high-risk populations such as ethnic minority, imprisoned and homeless young people.

Contributors identify epidemiological data and theoretical underpinnings necessary for designing and implementing effective behavioural risk-reduction and prevention programmes. They also evaluate existing intervention strategies, such as school-based programmes and mass media efforts, and offer public policy recommendations.
