Summary

AIDS Youth Education Act of 1988 - Amends part B (Federal-State Cooperation) of title III (General Powers and Duties of Public Health Service) of the Public Health Service Act to authorize the Secretary of Health and Human Services to make grants for educating and counseling certain youths with respect to the prevention of exposure to, and the transmission of, the etiologic agent for acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). Describes the youths as those who: (1) are homeless; (2) are unemancipated minors away from home for a significant period without parental consent; (3) engage in intravenous substance abuse or in prostitution; (4) are homosexual or bisexual males; or (5) engage in sexual activity with such unemancipated minors or with any individual who is homeless, engages in intravenous substance abuse or prostitution, or is a bisexual or homosexual male. Sets forth preferences in making grants. Requires applicants to agree to: (1) provide outreach services for the youths; and (2) use educational materials and confidential counseling procedures that are appropriate for the age and cultural context of the youths and that emphasize the behavioral changes necessary to prevent exposure to, and the transmission of, the etiologic agent for AIDS. Permits grantees to expend the grant to train individuals to carry out the education and counseling provided for in this Act. Authorizes appropriations for FY 1989 through 1991.
