Good morning, HEDIRs- I am wondering if any of you are working directly with teens/young adults who are HIV positive? I am seeking some ideas, suggestions, and resources for evaluation specifically focused on prevention that is directly geared toward youth who are already HIV positive (for example, our program focuses on communicating and disclosing HIV status to partners and potential partners, as one unique area for this group.) If you have any experience or can direct me to any evaluation resources in this particular area, I would love to talk with you. Please contact me at
LLHealth@optonline.net. Thanks! Lisa

Hello Fellow HEDIRs,
=20
I am looking for prevalence data for large US cities (>=3D250 000
population). Specifically, I am interested in health-related behaviors
(eg, smoking, physical activity), disease statistics (eg, heart
disease), and receipt of preventive screenings/immunizations across
large US cities.
=20
I have looked on the CDC website and found some good information. Are
there other sources as well? =20
=20
Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,
Lorraine Wallace

Just wanted to pass on the information that if anyone is looking for a
powerful film on date rape for college audiences, one of my colleagues here
at the University of Maryland, Dr. Robin Sawyer, has just completed an
updated version of his very successful date rape film, Playing the Game.
The dramatized film depicts sexual assault and date rape from both the male
and female perspectives and is very successful at stimulating great
discussion among students.
If you're interested in more information, the web site is:
