📅 In recent updates to HIV.gov, several long-recognized HIV/AIDS Awareness Days have been removed — including those honoring Black, Latinx, Native, Asian & Pacific Islander, and LGBTQ+ communities.
These days have historically acknowledged the diverse experiences of people affected by HIV and helped guide targeted prevention, education, and advocacy efforts.
As a community organization that relies on HIV.gov as a trusted federal resource, we want to make our community aware of these changes and reaffirm our commitment: representation matters, and awareness saves lives.
🕯️ At ASF, we will continue recognizing every community impacted by HIV — because ending stigma and advancing equity require every voice.
