On September 22, the members of Sister Act engaged in two activities one was a Meet and Greet Session with the freshmen and the other was with Resident Housing Assistants (RHA). At this event we talked about HIV /AIDS and the importance of condom usage to prevent contracting the disease. We also disturbed condoms and information about Sister Act for other young ladies who were interested in knowing about our program. These two events gave us the opportunity to demonstrate how to put on a condom and how to properly take off a condom.
During my session with the RHA’s I was about to share with them how and why we need to protect ourselves. I also shared with them about the availability of condoms on campus and where they can go to receive more condoms for their students. I also shared with them why it is important to wear the right size when using the condom and why you have to use it correctly each time. During the session I asked and answer questions about HIV/ AIDS and some statistics that I learned about South Carolina and their rating for STIs and HIV.
After this session I stayed and answered any questions or concerns that RHA’s had and I had them show me what they learned from me during this session by demonstrating how to put on a condom properly. Many students were able to show me what they learned.
some people don't know how to ask these questions, so when we come to them and explain everything in a comfortable environment, they realize everything about condoms isn't taboo! thank you for the help you've given those colleges :)
