HIV and Aids class
This last Friday, I went to a mandatory HIV and Aids informations class from 6 to 9:30. When I first arrived I had no idea what to expect for the next few hours of my night.... I was a little nervous sitting there waiting for it to start. Cavin is one of the main guys down at ALPHA and he was going to be presenting the information for me and the other students there. We filled out a pre and post comfort level sheet about areas of sex, HIV, and Aids. At first I definitely was a little uneasy at first with the sexual language that Cavin was using. He said it isn't doing us any good if the classroom is censored and then we go out on a condom raid or interact with someone with questions or just talking to them and it not be. I really did learn WAY more about HIV, Aids, Safe sex, and just the mindset of Cavin and his volunteers and helpers. I see Cavin's passion for his work as it ties closely to his husbands fight with HIV.
