Decide on the format for your PSA – will it be a video, flyer/poster, or audio recording? Keep your audience in mind.
Write a persuasive scriipt or design the visual elements for your PSA content highlighting the 3 STI prevention actions you selected. Some examples could include:
Using condoms/barriers correctly
Getting tested regularly
Having open conversations with partners
Knowing your status
Avoiding risky behaviors
Create your final digital PSA product, keeping it concise, educational, and focused on your 3 main prevention points. Be creative!
