Our Programs
Our Programs
Satellite Site Initiative
WAN offers free testing and prevention counseling at local agencies and contracted satellite sites. This program allows businesses and community agencies to offer free HIV testing to their clients at their office.
See our Satellite Site page to see who has signed up for this beneficial program.
Dialogue of Hope
We cannot prevent the spread of HIV without the help of local churches. The Dialogue of Hope is a program to work with churches to present information, offer testing, and listen to the wisdom of the church as we work together to fight the spread of HIV/AIDS.
Electronic AIDS Intervention
EAI is a cutting edge program to reach people engaging in risk behavior by using the internet to give them safety messages and direct them to care. We have blogs, networking groups, and email addresses set up to access communities who meet and negotiate encounters online.
Youth Empowerment Program (YEP!)
The Youth Empowerment Program is a 6 week course designed for high school seniors who will be in the first generation of their family to go to college. It helps prepare them for what they will encounter in the college environment with sessions on credit card and finance, HIV/AIDS information, food and nutrition, anger management, sexual assault prevention, and substance abuse awareness.
