Aboriginal Youth: Get the Facts. Share the Facts.
Aboriginal youth from across Canada put into words and pictures their thoughts on sexual health in workshops organized by CATIE and the Canadian Aboriginal AIDS Network (CAAN). Their discussion and incredible artwork — some of which is featured in Get the Facts posters and postcards — reveal that sharing information and thoughts on sexual health and HIV prevention makes Aboriginal youth connected, and powerful.
