Color Splashes, Spiced Food & honest conversations... The Luau married Hawaiian soul with HIV educational fire. No virgins were sacrificed in the volcano!

  Evolution Project, s programmatic component of Atlanta-based agency, AID Atlanta, provided creative educational activities to community visitors last Saturday. Reactive, one of the center's volunteer groups, spent months planning the themed event that was designed to cater to younger people of color; increasing their capacity to employ healthier sexual behaviors and also expand their efficacy around condoms usage.

The event began around 4pm with a warm welcome from Markeese Sanders, a coordinator who works closely with the group. The festivities occurred until 8pm, offering rapid HIV testing and awareness raising activities. Overall 50 individuals interacted at the center and were recruited into other Evolution Programming.

We want to congratulate Evolution members for their successful engagement event, in spite of late-summer showers people were pleased and open to showing up and learning more about the center.
