IMPORTANT INFO!! Did you know???? CDC (CENTER FOR DISEASE CONTROL) STUDIES INDICATE THAT EVERY 11 SECONDS SOMEONE CONTRACTS HIV/AIDS. 69% of new HIV/AIDS cases are reported by AFRICAN AMERICAN women and girls. DID you know that African American women and women of color are less likely to insist that a partner(s) use condoms, AND THAT heterosexual women are contacting HIV/AIDS from bi-sexual or DOWN LOW males who do not consider themselves to be "gay", and so neglect to inform their FEMALE partners!!? WAKE UP!... THE "REPORTED" CASES OF HIV/AIDS REPRESENT ONLY 10%, (OR simply THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG) IN REGARDS TO ACTUAL CASES RUNNING RAMPANT IN THE SEXUALLY ACTIVE POPULATION TODAY! Click Here for a look at the TIP OF THE ICEBERG HERE'S THE DEAL. Are you monogamous? Is your mate? Take the quiz. AND DON'T CHEAT! STOP LYING TO YOURSELF! CALL A SPADE A SPADE!

For the last 8 years we've issued a critical challenge to all takers!! Address the following: What excuses do you use that enable you to under-achieve your God given potential, those gifts and talents you possess but refuse to use fully?
If you are GUILTY you know that you do just enough to "get by". You also KNOW why you do just enough to get by!! BE TRUTHFUL, IT IS WHAT IT IS! The other CRITICAL CHALLENGE? TO BE "FOR REAL" AND ACKNOWLEDGE the fact that -IF you engage in sex with multiple partners, or with someone who has multiple partners, the question is WHY IN THE WORLD DO YOU PLACE YOURSELF HIGHLY AT RISK FOR CONTRACTING HIV/AIDS??? THE STATISTICS REPRESENT ONLY THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG. THE FIGURES REPRESENT ONLY TEN PERCENT OF THE EXTENT TO WHICH HIV/AIDS RUNS RAMPANT IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY. THE REPORTED FIGURES REPRESENT REPORTED CASES - NOT THE UNDIAGNOSED CASES, OR THE CASES OF "CARRIERS" WHO ARE AFRAID TO BE TESTED, OR THOSE INFECTED WITH THE VIRUS BUT WHO HAVE NO SYMPTOMS, OR CASES WHERE THE VIRUS TAKES 10 YEARS TO SURFACE!!! UNDERSTAND THIS...THE "REPORTED" CASES OF HIV/AIDS EQUAL JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG, IN RELATIONSHIP TO ACTUAL HIV/AIDS CASES RUNNING RAMPANT IN A SEXUALLY ACTIVE POPULATION! Click Here to get a GOOD VIEW of the TIP OF THE ICEBERG IF YOU DO THE FOLLOWING, YOU PLAY A FOOLS GAME WITH A DEADLY KILLER: 1. ENGAGE IN UNPROTECTED SEX WITH A PARTNER THAT ENGAGES IN UNPROTECTED SEX WITH OTHERS WHO ENGAGE IN UNPROTECTED SEX... 2. SHARE NEEDLES FOR INJECTING DRUGS, OR ENGAGE IN UNPROTECTED SEX WITH WITH SOMEONE WHO SHARES NEEDLES FOR INJECTING DRUGS 3. IGNORE THE SIGNS THAT YOUR PARTNER MAY BE ON THE "DOWN LOW".
****** BE PRO ACTIVE, AND GET YOURSELF TESTED!!!******
OUR MISSION IS TO BE A NATIONAL and INTERNATIONAL WEB RESOURCE FOR WOMEN OF COLOR!! WE ARE A RESOURCES POOL!!! LAST YEAR WE HOSTED AN OPENHOUSE WITH SISTER ORGANIZATIONS UJAMAA ASSOCIATES, AFRICAN AMERICAN YOUTH FOUNDATION, AND THE CENTER FOR ARTISTIC DEVELOPMENT. TOPICS INCLUDED "STARTING/GROWING A BUSINESS", AND "SECURING FUNDING AND GRANTS FOR YOUR BUSINESS". WE ARE INTERNATIONAL! 4 YEARS AGO WE RECEIVED A VISIT FROM 5 FEMALE GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS FROM OMAN (AN INDEPENDENT COUNTRY IN THE MIDDLE EAST. THEY WERE IN THE PROCESS OF DEVELOPING A WOMEN'S SERVICES GROUP. WE DISCUSSED ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT, WOMEN'S RIGHTS, AND WAYS TO EMPOWER WOMEN OF COLOR.
