These materials are so helpful that other groups which had prematurely judged street children, opened up towards helping them after learning about bridge building with youth.

HIV/AIDS.

In 1990, Street Kids International was one of the first organizations to address the issue of HIV/AIDS with youth living in poverty. Almost 20 years later, the need for effective tools and thinking on how to secure healthy futures for young people still exists. Karate Kids, our award winning animation on sexual health has been translated into over 25 languages and is used in more than 60 countries.

Our work over the years has resulted in the production of a number of valuable resources about issues affecting street youth, including HIV/AIDS. Please feel free to reference them in your research and pass them on to others.
