Vermont's Program In Action

Providing HIV Prevention Education

• Collaborating with youth-serving agencies to build the capacity of teachers to provide up-to-date, accurate, evidence-based HIV, STD and pregnancy prevention education.
   
• Providing capacity building assistance to increase health educators’ comfort level with subject matters related to HIV, STD and pregnancy prevention and to create a climate conducive to learning.
   
• Engaging youth groups in the YRBS Student Analysis Project to examine the data on high risk behaviors related to HIV, STD, and pregnancy prevention; and engaging community members in dialogue to address the issues.

Conducting the Youth Risk Behavior Survey

• Providing an in-depth analysis of YRBS data on sub-group populations at high risk for health disparities.
   
• Disseminating YRBS data to schools, health agencies, partners, decision-makers, and on the Vermont Department of Health Web site.
   
• Encouraging alternative school settings, the juvenile justice system and youth-based social service organizations to collect YRBS data to plan interventions to reach high risk youth.
