Safe sex may be an awkward conversation for some parents to have with their kids, but for those taking part in National Youth HIV & AIDS Awareness Day (NYHAAD) on April 10, it’s a must.
The day, which targets those age 13-24, encourages getting tested, having a discussion about the virus and spreading information about how it affects the younger generation.
Here are some of the Central Florida locations that are hosting NYHAAD events:
- Zebra Coalition, 3-7 p.m.
