Programs, Practices and Promises: HIV Prevention Peer Education in Wisconsin.

Cox, Narra Smith

Peer Facilitator Quarterly, v16 n3 p92-98 Spr 1999

Describes Wisconsin's HIV-prevention peer-education programs, examining written survey responses from advisors of 27 established programs. Results found similarities in program objectives and variations in program implementation. Few programs were designed to specifically reach youth at highest risk for HIV transmission. Advisors were extremely committed to peer education but faced significant programmatic challenges. (SM)
