Hi, we're the HIT Squad. That's HIV Intervention for Teens. We're a project of the AIDS Network that serves as a voice for teenagers to talk openly and discuss questions about HIV infection, sex and AIDS. HIT Squad members are volunteers from Madison area high schools with creative minds and lots of energy who present relevant factual information to groups of teens. Our presentations are based on discussions and lively, hands-on activities. It is our goal to provide teenagers with the informational tools necessary to make informed choices about behaviors that put us at risk of HIV infection.
