From the press release:

The CCM Foundation’s – Hip Hop Health & Wellness Workshop
The occurrence of sexually transmitted infections continues to grow at epidemic rates. Traditional methods of providing education and awareness have been ineffective with the highest at risk groups. African Americans represented approximately 53% of all newly diagnosed HIV infections in Harris County in 2006. African Americans alone account for nearly 49% of all infections diagnosed in the U.S. in 2006.*
Founders of Changing Communities Movement (CCM) Foundation, Martin Troupe, Corey Garrett and Corey Green have devised a highly effective and innovative approach to reaching the most
at risk groups. Early 2006 welcomed the first volume of The CCM Foundation’s DVD MixTape. The MixTape is a free DVD loaded with music, videos, live performances and a multitude of information relating to HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases. Each volume resonates with The CCM Foundation’s catchy reminder to, “Use Condoms, Get Tested, Know Your Status”. The DVD’s greatest attraction is the personal messages from popular Hip Hop, R&B, gospel artists and athletes, such as Yolanda Adams and <Include another artist here>. Also included are facts and statistics about how STDs are spread and the methods of prevention. A free condom comes with every DVD MixTape.
With Volume 4 and a Volume 4 SE (Special Edition) recently completed, production on Volume 5 and 6 of the DVD is now in progress. The alarming response to the DVD MixTape exposed the need extend the reach deeper into the communities throughout Houston. On October 18, 2008 The CCM Foundation continues their Hip Hop Health & Wellness Workshop series. This free event will be held in Emancipation Park in Houston, Texas, from 10 am – 2 pm. To ensure the greatest impact possible, several concerned businesses and organizations partnered with CCM including Planned Parenthood, Strapped Condoms, SwishaHouse Records, Platinum City Music Group and Block Bully Records. There will be a great deal of information and free STD testing along with games, refreshments, prizes, and a freestyle rap contest, all free of charge.
At the previous event on October18, 2008, more than 30 individuals received free HIV screening
and counseling. The November 15, 2008 and December 1st World AIDS day events will provide STD testing as well. We look forward to your attendance if possible and please disseminate this
information to others that may benefit from it.
