The Spectrum of Calgary Street Involved Youth and HIV Risk

AIDS Calgary is currently working in collaboration with the Faculty of Social Work at the University of Calgary and numerous community partners to examine the spectrum of street-involved youth in relation to their service needs and risk for HIV/AIDS.

Through the use of a survey and in-depth interviewing, the study aims to collect and compile information with the goal of improving prevention, safety, risk and stabilization services appropriate for youth throughout the spectrum of street-life involvement.

This study concludes in the fall of 2006, with a community-roundtable on September 13, 2006. For more information, contact the research coordinator at Street Youth Study.
