Delivering HIV information to people through the tools they use.
e-Cards
What is an e-Card?
Electronic greeting cards, or e-cards, are similar to a postcard or greeting card, but are sent via e-mail or over the Internet. You can use them to invite people to an event, encourage safe behaviors, or send a message to friends, colleagues, or clients.
A note of caution: Some people use e-cards to spread malicious software, for spam, and for identity-theft. Only open e-mails and e-cards from people you know, and which specify a person’s or organization’s name.
e-Cards in response to HIV
- Encourage healthy behaviors such as taking an HIV test or using a condom.
- Promote HIV-related events and resources.
- Provide peer-to-peer partner notification systems for HIV and sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
