Conclusion

In conclusion, we are still determined to help the Navajo Nation with the spread of syphilis. We are doing our part by talking to our siblings, and relatives about the issue of syphilis our race is facing and how it affects the Navajo Reservation. From the data and information we have obtained about syphilis, we are now fully aware of the disease's symptoms and have a better understanding about syphilis and other STDs. As for informing the public, we are now developing a strategy of trying to talk to the parents first, and then from there they can talk to their own children. Most teens are sexually active from ages fifteen to nineteen and may not know about STDs, so what we would like to do is inform our peers as well as other teens in the Navajo Nation about the most common STDs, including syphilis, and how it will affect their health. We would also like to inform the general public, by issuing a self-awareness project for our community and if possible other communities within the Navajo Nation.
