What Works? HIV/AIDS Education in Rural America

Abstract:
[ARCHIVED] This manual contains descriptions of 50 model rural HIV/AIDS education programs, including their strategies and suggestions for implementing successful programs. Chosen as exemplary programs on the basis of a 1989 survey, the 32 schools and districts are presented as chapters in alphabetical order by state. Community and school demographics are described for ease of comparison. The state context and the local context of HIV/AIDS education are summarized to provide background information. Specific strategies that have been effective for each school are then listed. Finally, each chapter describes features of that HIV/AIDS education program that are specifically rural, and offers specific suggestions for implementing effective educational strategies. Quite helpful are the appended Strategy Guide and Suggestion catalogue which organize successful strategies of a particular kind with references to specific programs and offer lists of subject specific suggestions given by the model programs. The updated volume of this book (1992) is available.
