The HIV-AIDS propagation rate in the state, keeps on growing and growing among youths. 

Given such situation, COMAC proposed and got approval from the State's AIDS Committee to publish a magazine exclusively for youngsters, male and female students. This is how TOC-TOC (knock-knock) was born, to gradually include articles about sexuality and STI's prevention.

TOC-TOC has been distributed at some high schools in town, where COMAC has also set information desks about use of condom, with a huge success. Adolescents use an anonymous mailbox to leave their questions and comments about sex education and prevention, providing an interesting insight about extreme hypothetical situations about what they'd do if facing a STI.

The magazine contains several sections for males and females, and the obvious, overall goal is to create awareness about protection, while not overlooking abstinence and examining peer relations and boyfriend/girlfriend issues, as well as many other involving factors for a better, healthier life.

Many thanks to COESIDA for their support for this project!
