National Youth Commission Commits to HIV Program for the Youth

The National Youth Commission during the Committee on Health meeting held last September 13, 2018 under the new leadership of Commissioner Victor del Rosario reiterated their support for the national HIV program under the NYC - HIV and AIDS Prevention Program for the Youth (HAPPY). This is an undertaking in partnership with Project red Ribbon as its implementing partner for a national HIV training on HIV awareness and HIV Screening. Under this program, there will be a training for the youth leaders to roll out the HIV Program to the youth organizations all over the country.

 The need for the youth organizations to step up in helping the national HIV program is imperative. The cases of HIV in the country among the youth continuously rise every month. With the weak educational platform on HIV in schools and universities, the NGO's need to aggressively come together especially those focused on the youth should start coming together and strategies on how to arrest the growing epidemic. 

 With NYC stepping up and addressing the issue among the youth, with Project Red Ribbon as its partner, we do hope that we can create ripples of impact not only on education but also strengthen the program on the promotion of early HIV testing as a means of prevention of the spread of HIV.
