This paper concerns alternatives to staff AIDS and HIV training in child care agencies. Specifically, the training practices of the Save the Children Fund are examined. The use of a corporate approach to training is supported while encouraging involvement at all staff levels. Typically, only the fieldstaff participated fully in the development of training and policy. This is viewed as a drawback because often changes in policy and technique require decision-making from the top staff levels. Emphasis is also placed on creating an agency structure that allows easy dissemination and adaptation of ideas. Finally, a clear understanding of AIDS issues and available programs offered by the agency must be required of all staff members before any substantive progress can be made in aiding the public.
