It has been my dream since my first
days at Harvard University in the 1980s that I provide the best and
most extensive website for teens on the internet dealing with issues of
HIV and AIDS prevention. And over the next six months, we are building
this special world-class website for you based on Harvard quality
research.
Here is what you are going to find:
** 23 language capability so that young people from around the world can access our information.
** The largest Glossary of terms and definitions to help the student and researcher understand AIDS terminology.
** Video, photos and stories of youth in the fight against HIV/AIDS.
** Teen advice of a medical nature "Ask Dr. John" that is confidential but available for all youth to read.
** Country-by-country reports featuring photos, videos, press accounts and stories by teens.
Plus many other great features.
I began my work with school students in the USA in 1992 and am an
expert in this specialized field from Harvard. To date, I have been to
70 countries to walk the streets to talk with youth, in and out of
school. I am leaving for Costa Rica on November 30 to walk and talk in
San Jose where I will be for World AIDS Day, December 1. A week later I
will arrive in Panama. Check in next week for my news update.
I am a volunteer in the fight against youth HIV/AIDS. Despite the fact
that I am offered an annual salary, I do not take one so that all
tax-deductible donations we receive go directly to this important work.
Mother Theresa was always a role model for me because of her selfless
work with the poor of India. Now I donate all my time and dedicate my
energies to this humanitarian cause because I know that HIV is
spreading rapidly among innocent, sexually active teens because they
are not getting the correct, medically accurate information from
schools and adults. On this site, you will receive the Truth about
AIDS, never censored information!
I need your help for me to
help you. If you know adults who can give money, please click here (MC,
VISA, AMEX). If you can write a short report (2 paragraphs) about your
ideas about the problem of teen HIV/AIDS -- or your idea to help
educate your friends, please click here. Would you like "Dr. John" to
come and speak at your school or in your hometown? Please tell me and
send your request in. Be sure to include a current email address or
your full mailing address.
While there are many good people
helping in the fight against the spread of AIDS, no other charitable
organization or person can do what we do. Our website was the first one
on the internet for teens about AIDS (1994) and now we are The Best!
Our mission statement is unique: "Full and honest access to the medical
facts is the human right of every maturing adolescent."
Thank you for visiting us, Dr. John.
