HIV Frontlines: Youth Activist Brings HIV Prevention to an Urban Children's Hospital

from TheBody.com: Podcast Central

"Yes, babies are pretty, but they grow up to have sex ... and to potentially expose themselves to HIV," says HIV advocate Kai Chandler. Part of Chandler's work at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia involves getting preteens and teens tested for HIV, as well as talking to them about some pretty heavy issues -- sexual risk, partner negotiation and healthy relationships -- while they're still young enough for prevention messages to have the greatest impact. In this interview, Chandler explains how this job gets done -- and what else is going on in Philadelphia, a vibrant center of HIV/AIDS activism.
