Sua Community Junior Secondary School, or let’s call it SCJSS for short, recently got a lectured by guest speaker, Peter Martinez, Peace Corps Volunteer from California about the dangers of STI’S, teen age pregnancy, alcohol abuse, HIV/AIDS and domestic violence. About 600 kids were in the room where Mr. Peter Martinez, the Peace Corps Volunteer, spoke. Each topic was addressed in a very serious and bold manner, to show the young students how this is affecting people around the world. They showed students how dangerous STI’s, teenage pregnancy, HIV/AIDS, alcohol abuse, and domestic violence is through statistics of casualties and charts of how many people are in suffering in their community alone. After the lecture, the students at Sua Community Junior Secondary School definitely must had a clearer understanding and learned the seriousness of these devastating issues that affect the world. Maybe someone has already talked to you about those things, maybe someone hasn’t; but if someone talked to you personally to the point where they gave you the statistics and facts on how many people are suffering through HIV, AIDS, domestic violence, etc, would you listen or turn away in ignorance?
