India has contributed enormously to the AIDS disease. It said a total 17 lakh people had died across the world due to AIDS related illness. In India, the figure for such deaths reaches at 1.7 lakh. As per survey it is observed that we can reduce this death rate by creating awareness among people. Adolescent girls are more prone to suffer with AIDS because they are in the age of sexually activeness (16-18 yr) so it is our primary concern to educate adolescent girls about AIDS. In this study total 40 samples were selected by using non probability convinent sampling. The finding showed that Post test meam knowledge score (84.7%) was higher than pre test score (65%) and computed “t” value was 21.85 which was found significant at level of P?0.001 which indicate effectiveness of STP. In literature it’s written that mass media & public awareness is the best way to eradicate AIDS. The investigator felt strong need to evaluate knowledge on AIDS among adolescent girls of rural India.
