#HIVIsNotACrime Awareness Day is here. Our partners at The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation (@elizabethtayloraidsfdn – IG / @ETAForg – Facebook) works with countless activists, lawmakers, and coalitions to bring equality and justice to people living with HIV across the country. Take action now and learn about modernizing outdated HIV laws at: https://lnkd.in/ga63_5yU!

End HIV Criminalization laws! These laws undermine public health efforts by deterring people from HIV testing/treatment, stigmatizing those with HIV, & communities most impacted—including POC, women, LGBTQ ppl, sex workers, and the formerly incarcerated. #HINACDay #HIVIsNotACrime

We would like to extend our congratulations to Toni Newman, Director of The Coalition for Justice and Equality Across Movements, for being honored as a Health Justice Champion at this year's Show of Hope Gala (hosted by the San Francisco Community Health Center). Toni and the Coalition work hard to come up with solutions that address health disparities for communities most impacted by them. This recognition is well-deserved!

We're working hard to bring you 2025 USCHA. Until registration opens, please save September 4-7, 2025, to join us in DC. This year, it will be more critical than ever to unite and strengthen?the HIV movement. Thank you for your patience- we'll have more details soon!

Congresswoman Maxine Waters gave a statement observing National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day. We thank Congresswoman Waters for decades of being an ally and staunch advocate to end the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Her work reminds us the importance of following the data that continues to show the burden of HIV on Black Americans. That's why we have to keep working to improve prevention and treatment access to communities most affected by the epidemic. To read Congresswoman Waters's statement, visit https://lnkd.in/er6i3iB6

On February 7, we observe National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day. We follow the data, focus on science, and center the community to end the HIV epidemic.

Data has shown us how Black communities remain disproportionately affected by HIV and stigma. On National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, we’ll do our part to create urgency around ending the HIV epidemic and normalize conversations around HIV to end stigma.

This February, we're celebrating Black History Month- but we honor Black leaders, changemakers, and communities everyday. We're sharing President Trump's Black History Month proclamation - check it out here: https://lnkd.in/en28FKfb
