Underreported: AIDS and Youth (New York radio show)

Audio File: 

Kimberly Canady and Elias Perez – two HIV-positive Brooklyn teens – talk about their 2006 trip to Ethiopia as UNICEF youth activists. Hundreds of thousands of children have been orphaned by AIDS in Ethiopia, and many are living with the disease themselves. Jennifer Irwin of the Health and Education Alternatives for Teens (HEAT) Program, the only Brooklyn-based comprehensive care program for HIV-infected and at-risk youth aged 13 to 24, joins them to talk about the toll AIDS takes on children.

This interview aired on the program Underreported on WNYC 93.9 FM – a New York public radio station – on Dec. 14, 2006.
