a licensed accountant) are not allowable under this section unless they
provide advice and analysis directly applying their professional or

covered Federal action. Thus, for example, communications with the
intent to influence made by a lawyer that do not provide legal advice
or analysis directly and solely related to the legal aspects.of his or her
client's proposal, but generally advocate one proposal over another
are not allowable under this section because the lawyer is not

CALIFORNIA AIDS LEADERSHIP COMMITTEE EXHIBIT J
Statement on Explicitness of
AIDS/HIV Disease Prevention Material
July 27, 1988
The following are axioms regarding AIDS/HIV disease:
1. AIDS and other forms of HIV disease are caused by the human immunodeficiency virus
(HIV);
2. Sexual -intercourse and intravenous drug use are the major transmission modes of the
HIV;
3. Those possibly partakin in such activities need to understand and know how to modify
their behavior to avoid HIV infection; and
4. To effectively change behavior requires that education materials communicate frankly
about HIV, sex, and intravenous drug use.
It is also true that the language and illustrations needed to communicate effectively,
especially to those being less literate are considered offensive to some. In an attempt to
address these concerns, various guidelines have been established at Federal and State levels
which have attempted to clarify what is acceptable in government-sponsored AIDS
prevention programs. Unfortunately some of. these guidelines have confused those producing
AIDS education materials, have slowed' program implementation, and have hampered HIV
disease prevention efforts.
To remedy the above problem, the California AIDS Leadership Committee (CALCI believes the
following statement should be used to guide how candid and explicit AIDS/HIV prevention
materials may be:
1. Candor, frankness, and clear representations are essential for effective communication of
AIDS/HIV disease prevention messages.
2. Because of the nature of HIV transmission, it must be assumed that some AIDS/HIV
disease prevention materials may offend some people.
3. It is the .opinion of the CALC that the social and economic benefits of preventin& HIV
transmission is of .paramount importance and should take precedence over the risk of
offending some persons by the frankness of some AIDS/HIV disease prevention materials.
However, it is also the position of the CALC that this risk should be recognized and
that efforts should be made to make materials offensive. to the fewest number possible,
while still maintaining ,their effectiveness.
Therefore, for those who are producing AIDS/HIV disease preventive education materials, it
is recommended that whatever language illustrations, or demonstrations which their local
experts feel necessary be used to effect behavior change. It is the intent of this
recommendation that education materials be designed to maximize their educational
effectiveness; however, materials should be sensitive to others; and not utilize any
unnecessarily explicit depictions of,sexual or drug-using practices.
The CALC does not feel it is appropriate to issue narrow state guidelines or lists of
acceptable words. Further, the CALC recognizes that words which are commonly used by the
target audience may be,necessary to use if recommended by ;local health education experts.
In addition, it is recognized that explicit pictorials or illustrations may be necessary to reach
some populations. Such needs should be determined by local experts.
Finally, the CALC recognizes that for any HIV education and prevention program to be cost
effective it is essential that the message content and terminology be explicitly tailored to
each of its target audiences. In such targeting, some explicit language may be used that is
offensive to some individuals outside of the target audience(s); however, such offence is both
unavoidable and is an acceptable social price to pay for the intended societal benefits. The
decisions regarding the terminology should be made at the local level bypeople most familiar
with each target audience and without undue concern for the reactions ofpersonsoutside the
target audience.
