AIDS
is a killer and destroyer, but many young people believe that it
will attack someone else--not them. This dramatic documentary is
designed to eliminate the myths and confusion that plague many teens
today. In this video, people with AIDS and their families speak
of the pain and devastation caused by the disease. Medical experts
and health educators discuss in plain terms exactly what AIDS is
and how it is contracted, along with the risks associated with "safe
sex" practices. They also explain the one certain way to avoid
infection. Providing facts and solutions young people will respect
and comprehend, No Second Chance may give your students the gift
of life--because with AIDS, there is no second chance.
