- It's Your (Sex) Life, an ongoing partnership of MTV and the Kaiser Family Foundation to help young people make responsible decisions about their sexual health, is working with Planned Parenthood Federation of America and other partners nationwide to bring you the GYT, Get Yourself Tested, campaign.
- Responding to the fact that one in two young people will get a sexually transmitted disease (STD) by age 25 – and most won't know it – the GYT campaign seeks to create a social movement around getting tested. Through our presence on MTV Networks, the involvement of music and celebrity talent, and special promotions, GYT aims to remove the taboos surrounding STD testing.
- OMG, BRB, LOL…introducing GYT.
- Serving as the information hub for the campaign, www.GYT09.org provides facts on STDs, tips on how to bring up testing with partners and health care providers, and an easy to use testing center locator, provided by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). We hope you will find the information on our website helpful and informative and that you will pass on news about GYT to your friends, family, and colleagues.
