As part of a continuing effort to educate young people about HIV prevention and treatment, Illinois HIV Care Connect has introduced HIV and youth web content to support the Y.O.U.T.H. ( Youth Overcoming Undetected and Treatable HIV ) Quiz in advance of Dec. 1, which marks World AIDS Day 2019 ( #WAD2019 ).

All young people—whether they are living with HIV or not—are encouraged to review the content, take the quiz, and earn a chance to win a $25 VISA gift card. The quiz is available in a version for young people living with HIV ( Website Link Here ) and a version for young people who are HIV-negative ( Website Link Here ).

The Y.O.U.T.H. Quiz is designed to help Illinois youth to understand how HIV is transmitted from one person to another and how the virus can be successfully treated with medications, staying in care, treatment as prevention, and good mental health.
