• Description:
  Preventing the spread of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and sexually transmitted disease (STD) requires a comprehensive strategy composed of service delivery systems coupled with effective, sustained health education and health promotion interventions. These individual components of a prevention program must not operate in isolation, but must work together toward the well-being of the person at risk and the community as a whole. All education activities related to HIV/STD prevention should contribute to and complement the overall goal of reducing high-risk behaviors. The guidelines presented in this document are written to encourage HIV/STD prevention programs to focus on developing programs and services that are based on health education and health promotion strategies.
