Project Alpha Will Hold a Seminar for Teens

The Iota Sigma Lambda Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc., in partnership with the University of the Virgin Islands, will hold its annual Project Alpha seminar, which is geared toward young males between the ages of 13-18. It will be held at the UVI cafeteria from 8:45 a.m. to 2 p.m., on Saturday, Oct. 25.
The fraternity's national program aims to reduce the rate of adolescent sex and pregnancy; stress the concept of abstinence as a personal choice, while promoting the use of contraceptives to those that choose to be sexually active; increase the knowledge of anatomy and physiology of the human body and the awareness of sexually transmitted diseases; clarify and emphasize the roles and responsibilities of fatherhood; and reduce the rate of sexual abuse and violence among teens of color.
For additional information, contact Gary Moore at 277-6005.
