Mrs.Percy, the District Officer of APAC Link workers scheme, being implemented by SEVAI said ‘Trichy district Link Workers scheme is enjoying the support of the Governments and also PRIs, public and NYKs, she added that Under NACP III, the Link Worker Scheme was launched to saturate the reach of the HIV related services to the high risk groups based in the rural areas. This reinforced the requirement of an intensive rural based intervention for reaching the marginalized groups which remain uncovered even after the expansion of urban based prevention programmes. The LWS aims to address the complex needs of the rural HIV prevention, care and support requirements through: Identifying and training, the village level workforce of Supervisors, Link Workers and volunteers on issues of HIV/AIDS, gender, sexuality, STIs and above all on mobilizing difficult-to-reach, especially vulnerable sub populations including high risk individuals, youth and women. Linking the HRG and vulnerable populations to the public health services for STI, ICTC, ART and then their follow up back to communities (saturation of coverage to HRGs), Generating volunteerism among the community for fighting HIV & AIDS and inculcating health values is another cornerstone of this strategy. Addressing issues regarding counselling, condoms and behaviour change, the link worker scheme will be useful to reach out to the rural population with the focus among the high risk population such as youth, women etc. The program will cover villages through a mapping exercise. The high risk group identified through these link workers scheme are linked with the NGOs implementing TI in the respective districts for promoting behavior change and linked with other services. 
While the role and contribution of youth is of vital importance in all countries, it is particularly significant in a country like India where the proportion of the youth in the country's overall social and demographic profile is continuously increasing. According to the 2001 Census, there were approximately 355 million people in the 15 to 35 age group, 74 per cent of whom lived in rural areas. The number is expected to rise to approximately 510 million by 2016. Both central and state governments need to harness the energies of this large group, providing them with adequate infrastructure of world standards for excellence in sports at national and international levels. Kumar in his consolidated speech said. Adolescent youth in the 10-19 years age group numbered 230 million, accounting for 22.8 per cent of the population. It is proposed to target this segment of the youth population through specific intervention strategies that will focus on youth and power, gender justice, youth health and responsible living. The major thrust will be on involving the youth in the process of national planning and development and making them the focal point of development strategy by providing proper educational and training opportunities, access to information on employment opportunities including entrepreneurial guidance and financial credit, proper platforms for developing qualities of leadership, tolerance and open mindedness, patriotism, etc’.
