Welcome to the Official Website for the Washington AIDS International Teens!

The Washington AIDS International Teens is a group of young people, ages 13-30 that use breakdance, dance, singing, skits, and any other talents that we might have to teach about HIV/AIDS. WAIT does presentations and performances in schools, churches, health fairs, community events etc. The WAIT Team lives the message of abstinence before faithful marriage or lifetime partnership as our 100% best way of stopping the spread of HIV/AIDS worldwide.
