Is Your Man on the Down Low?

Ladies you CANNOT afford to miss today's Conversations with Dr. D Ivan Young. It may save your life.

It's 2013 and HIV is still on the rise, especially with African American men on the down low. Blacks/African Americans continue to be disproportionately affected by HIV infection. The estimated rate of new HIV infections among blacks/African Americans (68.9) was 7.9 times as high as the rate in whites (8.7). 

Tyvance Credit joins Dr. D to explore this controversial subject. Tyvance has been a key figure in the fight against the HIV/STD phenomenon in the Houston area for 15 years. 

Tyvance has tested more than 100,000 people, diagnosed at least 5,000, and linked about 70% of them to care. In his dedication to the cause, he has been known to pop the trunk and test people on the back of the car!

He founded the first internet program (B.O.I.S.) to outreach to people to prevent them from becoming HIV Positive. In 2012, he launched "The Tyvance Experience" to address the needs of women and their common need of self validation, appreciation, and confidence to continue being the back bone of the family and relationships.
