HEALTH EDUCATION ON THE PREVENTION OF HIV/AIDS WITH YOUNG MALE CRACK USERS

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to promote, through Cultural Circles, a critical and reflective space on the prevention of HIV/AIDS among young crack users. An action research was carried out in 2012 through the Cultural Circle, with ten young crack users. The analysis and interpretation of results focused on the discussion according to the group experience. Youngsters showed incipient and inarticulate knowledge about AIDS, mainly myths, and considered themselves vulnerable to HIV/AIDS, given the exchange of straws and pipes for cocaine/crack use and loss of consciousness favoring non-use of condoms during intercourse and having multiple partners. Results contribute towards the nursing work with dialogical and participatory methodologies, such as Paulo Freire, in order to encourage critical reflection of both educator and learner towards the prevention of STD/AIDS among cocaine/crack users.
