In 2008, the National Association of People with AIDS launched National Gay Men’s HIV/AIDS Awareness Day to recognize the disproportionate impact of the epidemic on gay men.

The observance offers an opportunity to raise awareness about stopping HIV stigma and encouraging HIV testing, prevention, and treatment for HIV among gay and bisexual men, who often face multiple challenges—such as racism, homophobia, discrimination, and stigma—which may increase the risk of HIV.

MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD. ✊🏽

Today, August 20, is Southern HIV/AIDS Awareness Day ( ). It’s a day to confront a hard truth: The South is facing the nation’s most severe HIV prevention crisis.

The numbers don't lie. Our region has the lowest PrEP-to-Need Ratio in the country—just 12 PrEP users for every new HIV diagnosis in 2024. This gap means the South has the greatest unmet need for HIV prevention services in the United States

PrEP is a lifesaving tool, but without equitable access, our communities remain vulnerable.

This , we remember those we've lost, educate our communities, and work to defeat this epidemic. We call on policymakers, healthcare providers, and community leaders to close this prevention gap and expand access to lifesaving resources. It's time for change. It's time for action. It's time for equity.

Remember. Educate. Defeat.
