National STD Awareness Month poster contest

In the fall of 2007 MDH held a design contest for National STD Awareness Month in April. Colleges were contacted, and students were asked to design campaign materials that are eye-catching, memorable, and effective. We received many high-quality entries, from which the CDC chose the following. All are free to the public for download. Click on image below to download a PDF file.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to enter, and congratulations to the finalists and to Darrell Stevens of Gainesville, Florida, who designed the winning entry!
