 Knoxville Cares' Diversity Trunk can be used by anyone who is interested in raising awareness about GLBT issues and HIV/AIDS in their community. The trunk is considered an excellent educational tool and can be used in the community to promote diversity and healthy sexual choices. The Diversity Trunk includes various books, videos, brochures and condoms. Some materials are available in Spanish.
