Salud y el Exito: Addressing Proven Factors in HIV Prevention for Latino Youth

Padres Unidos por la Salud y el Éxito de Nuestros Hijos will assess two intervention components aimed at reducing behaviors among youth that lead to elevated levels of HIV/AIDS in urban Latino communities.

  1. Salud y éxito: Consists of parent education delivered through bilingual audio CDs to promote positive parenting practices
  2. Salud y éxito más: Integrates audio-CD parent education with a school-based parent involvement program called PALMS Tools for Latino Family Outreach

Both intervention components encourage parental involvement in the academic success and future education planning of their preteens and young adolescents.

Director: Lydia O'Donnell

Duration: 2009–2012

Funders: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health
