The organization has been highly supportive of harnessing the power of the Internet, social networking platforms and interactive websites that are favorites of MSM and the LGBTQ community at large. Recently the Center for Disease Control and numerous other government entities such as Health and Human Services and HRSA have been rapidly developing a variety of mediums in their arsenal of prevention tools. LA Corp has been exploring funding sources to support their mission to embrace technology as a pathway to link marginalized communities to care providers.
The SEX Week activity will include the organization disseminating printed materials and incentives as a partnering opportunity with both the campus student government and Gay Straight Alliance to promote prevention messages to the student body.
