HIV/AIDS PRESENTATION IN SCHOOLS

Please be advised that, due to the sensitive subject matter, no agency has received blanket district approval to speak in the schools about AIDS. All HIV/AIDS presentations involving speakers from the community must be scheduled through the District HIV/AIDS Education Program, which serves as a clearinghouse for all HIV/AIDS materials and speakers.

The District HIV/AIDS Education Program approves individual doctors, other medical professionals, and community AIDS educators as members of its Speakers Bureau. These individuals have been oriented to the district curriculum, "AIDS: Get The Facts!" In addition, they participate in the district Speakers Bureau evaluation process.

Please review the correct procedures for requesting speakers from the HIV/AIDS Education Program Speakers Bureau. Necessary forms for requesting speakers can be retrieved from the Worksite AIDS packet, the school site HIV/AIDS Resource Teachers, or from the HIV/AIDS Education Office via the website at aidseducation.dadeschools.net.

It is imperative that the integrity of the district is maintained and correct procedure is followed in respect to community speakers on HIV/AIDS. Your cooperation is essential in this matter.
