All reproductive health programs for youth need to include
basic STI/HIV prevention services. This includes providing information
on STIs, counseling clients about safer sexual behaviors, assessing
client's risk for STIs, and the promotion and distribution of
condoms. If a client might be at risk for infection, he or she
should be referred to a clinic that can diagnose and, if necessary,
treat an infection.
