Our Method
We use a peer to peer teaching method. Students who have successfully undergone training on the topic of HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases through PAN in turn relay the information to their peers at their respective schools. With ongoing coaching and mentoring from PAN experts, PAN Student Assistants each lead their own groups to educate their peers on the topic of HIV. Student groups also organize testing days to ensure their peers have the opportunity to know their status.
Interested in starting a PAN club at your school?
Our goal at PAN is to prevent the spread of HIV by sharing accurate information about HIV/AIDS and providing opportunities for HIV testing. One way we do this is by screening potential club student assistants with a basic application and certification test. Any junior or senior secondary school student may apply to instate a PAN club at his or her school by submitting the application below along with a letter of recommendation from a school administrator. The application is our way of getting to know you and your school, so please use this as an opportunity to shine! Tell us about all the great things your school already does and why you are interested in bringing PAN to your school site. Then you will be asked to read through part of our curriculum and demonstrate your understanding by passing our certification test. This ensures that the club student assistant has a basic understanding of our curriculum from which to build as the club grows. Once we receive your application and test score we will contact you to discuss our training process and other certification details including the requirements for the school administrator letter of recommendation. Thank you for your interest in PAN! We look forward to working with you soon!

"There is so much false information spreading about HIV that we saw a great need for facts about the disease. We've chosen a peer to peer method, developed our own curriculum informed by years working with students, as well as up to date research reports."
