Greetings!
Aim For Success speakers will present our abstinence programs, drug prevention program and anti-bullying program to about one hundred thousand students this school year. We know it would not be possible to reach so many students if it weren't for the hard work and dedication of the the school boards, SHAC committees, PTAs, nurses, counselors, educators, youth leaders and community members who work to bring our programs to their students each year. So to each of you we want to say a great big "THANK YOU!" The lives of your students are being changed in so many positive ways because of your dedication to them!

HPV Linked to Heart Disease in Women
Written by the Medical Institute for Sexual Health
