The project report details how focus groups were conducted to determine the interests of adults in family literacy classes. Ten categories of interest were identified and materials were collected or developed for inclusion in either part one, instructional materials on a low reading level for use with students, or part two, an annotated bibliography of additional resources for students and teachers, of the book. Findings indicated teachers found the materials a useful resource; students felt the materials addressed their needs or, in cases where more extensive information was sought, the materials provided good introductory information on a topic. The nine-page final report is accompanied by the parenting resource book which consists of two sections. Part1 contains materials that were collected or developed to respond to the interests expressed by students in seven family literacy classes. These brief materials--lists, articles, and fact sheets--are divided into 10 categories: child development, communication, discipline, formal education, health--adults, health--children, informal learning, parenting, pregnancy, safety, and values. Part 2 is an annotated bibliography of 50 resource materials.

Descriptors 1 INTRODUCTION PURPOSE The purpose of this project was todevelop a Parenting Resource Book of materials for use in familyand other adult basic and literacyeducation (ABLE) programs.Because family literacy isrelatively recent and is expanding, there are many teacherswho are new to this field. The needfor a resource book wasbased on the fact that these adulteducators might not familiar with materials available onparenting topics, it takes asignificant amount of time to identifyand obtain these materials, and,for some topics, materials need to be developed on alow reading level. The materials in the ParentingResource Book were collected or developed to address issues raisedby the adults in CFL familyliteracy classes. The book consists of two sections:1. a collection of instructionalmaterials on a low readinglevel for use with students, and 2. anannotated bibliography of additional materials for studentsand teachers. TIME FRAME This was a twelve month project,July 1993 through June 1994. STAFF AND KEY PERSONNEL Debra Cherkas began as the projectdirector and Rose Brandt completed the project.Other CFL educators whoparticipated in the project include Joanna Carty, Faith Green,Wendy Lovell, Pamela Pinder,Catherine De Long Smith, Monty Wilson, and RebeccaWolbach. AUDIENCE The immediate audience wassixty adult students in six CFLfamily literacy classes. The materials areappropriate for use by participantsin other family literacy programs statewide.In addition, ed-ocators of anyadults who are parents willbe able to use the resourcebook to support their educational services. Permanent copies of this reportand the final products willbe on file for the next five years withAdvancE, 333 Market Street,Harisburg, PA and the Western PennsylvaniaAdult Resource Center, 5347William Flynn Highway, Gibsonia, PA. Copiesof the materials will beprovided to the nine Regional Staff DevelopmentCenters. 2 BODY OF REPORT STATEMENT OF THEPROBLEM Understanding of theintergenerational nature of illiteracyhas led toan increase in thenumber of familyliteracy programs. While thereare materialson many parenting topicsavailable froma variety of sources, finding thesescattered resources is a challenge. Often educatorsand learners are unaware of whatexists and many of thematerials are written at a level whichmakes theinformation inaccessible to lowlevel readers. Asa result, staff with a background in ABLEwho become involvedin family literacy programs often investa great deal of time locating instructionalmaterials on parenting and finding qualitybackground materials to assistthem in developingtheir own understanding of andmaterials for parenting issues. The ParentingResource Book was developed asa comprehensivecollection of instructionalmaterials foruse with learners and background informationfor educatorson a range of basic parenting issues thatarise in classes, suchas communication, developmentalstages of children,home safety, health issues,values, formaleducation, and informal learningactivities, discipline. The first sectionof theresource book provides an extensive collectionof materials onparenting issues forlow level readers. Existing materialswere included when theywere brief, at an appropriate readinglevel, and permissionto reprint could beobtained. When necessary, materials ata lower reading levelwere created.

Specifically, this investigation focuses on the American LGBTQ community, who have historically demonstrated a high level of success in using theatre to bring public awareness to specific issues, such as homophobia and AIDS, and how playwrights within that community are currently dealing with the ongoing crisis of teen suicide and bullying, particularly in light of a string of LGBTQ bullying-related suicides in September 2010.

    HIV/AIDS INFORMATION LINE 150 - 154 Albion Street Surry Hills NSW 2010 Tel: +61 (2) 9332 9700 Freecall: 1800 451 600 A HIV/AIDS TIMELINE Emphasising the Australian / New South Wales Perspective The Origins of HIV/AIDS It is generally agreed that Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV) found in African primates became Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) which causes Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Genotyping research, comparing different types of HIV with different types of SIV, suggests that HIV has been introduced to humans on at least 12 different occasions, once each for the 12 different types of HIV-1 and HIV-2 discovered so far. HIV-1 is divided into 4 types - Groups M (main), O (outlier), N (new or non-M/O) and P. HIV-1 Group M, is by far the most easily transmitted and widespread form of HIV found today, being responsible for more than 99% of all HIV infections worldwide and it is the form of HIV usually intended when this document just refers to HIV. HIV-1 Group M is also further divided into 9 further subtypes or clades and there are also 48 recognised recombinant forms (made up of a mix from the genome of 2 or more of the 9 clades which are most likely the result of superinfection of individuals with multiple subtypes). Countries or risk groups can have different dominant subtypes. HIV-1 Groups O, N and P only occur in small numbers of people and are rare outside of Africa. HIV-2 has 8 subtypes, 2 of the subtypes are common and are called Group A and B.

McNab A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of New South Wales, 2009 PLEASE TYPE THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: McNab First name: Justin Other name/s: William Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School: National Centre in HIV Social Research Faculty: Arts and Social Sciences Title: Negotiating HIV Prevention: The Talk, Test, Trust Story and Beyond. Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) In May 1996 the AIDS Council of NSW launched Talk Test Test Trust …Together (TTTT), an HIV prevention campaign aimed at decreasing risk of infection within gay men’s relationships. The rationale behind TTTT was ‘negotiated safety’: that it was safe not to use condoms for anal sex in primary relationships if specific steps were followed. TTTT generated contestation within AIDS Councils in Australia and New Zealand, but also amongst researchers, policy makers and gay communities. Arguments about TTTT and negotiated safety appeared logical and reasonable and did not fall neatly along an Australia/New Zealand divide. This study used a qualitative approach to interview key HIV educators in New South Wales who were involved in the development of TTTT and New Zealand educators who did not promote negotiated safety. This thesis argues that in order to understand the contestation around negotiated safety and TTTT it is necessary to understand
