Along with our Planned Parenthood friends (and condoms that they provided), we handed out 1,000 condoms on the street last Friday in preparation for Valentine's Day. While the condoms were open to anyone in the community (and lets be honest, word got around), we targeted young people who are at great risk for STD and HIV transference. When working near campuses that are hostile to reproductive education, as we do, we walk a fine and precarious line sometimes that is fraught with uncertainty; but we know that we do good work and that we provide important resources for thousands of young people, regardless of university affiliation. We are so excited to have had our first major event, and can't wait for more to come.
