Important Info on AIDS and HIV Among Black Youth in the US

HIV/AIDS among Youth

“Young people in the United States are at persistent risk for HIV infection. This risk is especially notable for youth of minority races and ethnicity. Continual HIV prevention outreach and education efforts, including programs on abstinence and on delaying the initiation of sex, are required as new generations replace the generations that benefited from earlier prevention strategies. Unless otherwise noted, this fact sheet defines youth, or young people, as persons who are 13–24 years of age.” (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)
