Ward is program manager of the adolescent prevention education programs at Children’s National Medical Center in D.C. She oversees Teens Against the Spread of AIDS (TASA), which is having its first event, Catwalk for a Cure, for the local HIV prevention youth campaign Rock the Block at 6 p.m. Tuesday in the center’s main atrium. World AIDS Day is Wednesday. Talk about Catwalk for a Cure.
We like to use innovative approaches to HIV prevention, so instead of having another HIV one-on-one, another HIV Powerpoint, another HIV workshop, we decided to have a fashion show because that’s something that is interesting and relevant to D.C. area youth… We’re going to take a global look at how HIV and AIDS affects a variety of communities.
