Keep It Safe Summer: Leavers 2019

The Zone paddock KISS team 06

Young people are particularly vulnerable to Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs), including HIV, and this risk is increased when coupled with alcohol and other drug consumption.

KISS (Keep it Safe Summer) provides young people with education, information & resources throughout the summer months around sexual health, alcohol and other drug use.

Each year our KISS team is at Leavers in Dunsborough keeping young people safe!

The Impact of KISS program in the last five years:

  • 69 volunteer peer educators have been trained as part of the K.I.S.S project
  • 56,798 safer sex packs have been distributed to leavers at official leavers week celebrations
  • Volunteers have had 3717 conversations with leavers: 2392 about safe sex, 846 about alcohol and 479 about other substances

Our Mission

To minimise the impact and further transmission of HIV, other blood borne viruses and sexually transmissible infections. To reduce social, legal and policy barriers which prevent access to health information and effective support and prevention services.

WA AIDS Council would like to acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the Traditional Custodians of this country throughout Australia, and their strength, resilience and connection to land and community. In particular, the WA AIDS Council would like to acknowledge the Wadjuk people of the Noongar Nation as the traditional custodians of the land in which our office is located.
