The presenter will be Pattti Smith from the AIDs Project located at 8 N. Grove Street, Lock Haven. The AIDS project offers services such as prevention education, direct client care, risk reduction counseling and HIV testing.

GSA President Alicia Perrelli says, “It’s important for college students to be educated on these issues because it’s the first step to prevention. GSA and the CVPP are happy to have Ms. Smith and the AIDS Project as a resource.”
