The informant in this study is adolescents Mluweh Village. The technique of taking data using interviews then data analyzed descriptively. Results: Adolescents in Mluweh Village did not have comprehensive information on HIV/AIDS, which was due to low levels of education, still considered a taboo of reproductive health education, and lack of information resources on HIV/AIDS. Teenagers feel the need to do the formation of the Working Group (Pokja) of HIV/AIDS as an effort to increase knowledge of HIV/AIDS.
