About RRC
The Red Ribbon Club is a voluntary on-campus intervention program for students in educational institutions. It is Inaugurated on 11.2.2011 and supported by the Tamilnadu State AIDS Control Society (TANSACS) and implemented through multi-sectoral collaboration, particularly, using the services of cadre officers of the National Service Scheme (NSS).

The programme will address the knowledge, attitude and behavior of the youths in the interrelated areas of Voluntary Blood Donation, HIV & AIDS, as demanded by their age, environment, and life style. The Red Ribbon Club will serve as a complementary and comprehensive prevention intervention to support and reinforce similar youth led initiatives.

Thus Red Ribbon Club Programme (RRCP) is a comprehensive promotional and preventive intervention to enhance voluntary blood donation as well as mainstream HIV & AIDS prevention, care & support and treatment impact, mitigation, stigma reduction, among the youth in educational institutions. It will also prepare and promote youth peer educators within and outside the campuses
