Street Wize Accomplishments, Previous Projects, Programs and Services
Street Wize Foundation has had a working relationship with The Department of Health HIV/AIDS Administration through our sister organization Streetz Magazine since 2005. Streetz Magazine has made it possible for us to establish a level of trust and credibility in our DC youth community.  This has successfully enabled us to establish a HIV/AIDS awareness information pipeline to our youth in the District.  Our lists of productive and effective campaigns are:

*EFFI BARRY HIV/AIDS CAPACITY BUILDING PROGRAM YEAR ONE – April – Sept 08
