STAR TRACK is a HIV/STI program within the Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine at the University of Maryland, Baltimore. We set out to create safe-space events to cater to youth and young adults between the ages of 12-24. While many institutes of higher education are familiar with Baltimore Pride Fest, an annual summer event, few are aware of Black Pride which occurs in October. We are proud to say that we support and contribute to both by creating events that focus on young adults. This year we will host a Karaoke night as well as a self-defense/work-out session. Knowing students’ ravenous appetites, pizza will be available at the karaoke event. In addition, both of our events will be held in downtown venues for transportation accessibility. In addition, on Sept 27th we will be tabling and testing for HIV/STI on Goucher College’s campus. This event like the others is open to the community. More information on each event can be found on the attached flyers.
