Now available: CD containing HIV and Oral Health training toolkit or peers
The ECHO Project and the PEER Center worked together to create a module to train peers about the importance of oral health as part of overall health for people living with HIV and to engage clients in oral health care. This 3 1/2 hour lesson plan includes Powerpoint presentations on Oral Health and culminates in a Jeopardy Game to solidify participants’ newly acquired knowledge and skills. To request a copy of the toolkit, including all the musical “bells and whistles” that enliven the presentations:
- Go to the HIV and Oral Health page on the PEER Center website

The PEER Center helps organizations that want to improve health outcomes for their HIV patients by integrating HIV-positive peers into their care and treatment team.
