Tribal Advocacy Kit

The STD/HIV Advocacy Kit was designed by the Red Talon STD/HIV Coalition to help tribal STD programs educate their tribal decision makers about the impact of sexually transmitted diseases on tribal health, and the importance of comprehensive STD prevention activities. The Kit includes information about AI/AN STD rates, the social and economic impact of STDs on tribal communities, and steps that can be taken by tribal councils to improve school-based, clinic-based, and community-based prevention efforts.
To support dissemination and tribal outreach, the Kit is compiled in a folder that can be distributed to tribal council members, school administrators, clinicians, and others who have an impact on community health. A PowerPoint presentation is available to help tribal health educators share the content of the Kit during group presentations.
