NYHAAD
Here’s something you may not have known. Every month 1,000 young people acquire HIV. Every month.

It’s time to take action and invest in young people – their health, their education, and their leadership – so we can truly reach an AIDS-free generation!

Join us for the FIRST EVER National Youth HIV & AIDS Awareness Day (NYHAAD) on April 10! Let’s acknowledge young people’s great work fighting this epidemic, and hold our leaders accountable to prioritizing young people in the fight against HIV & AIDS. 

What can you do to support NYHAAD? You can table, host a poetry reading, show a movie, bring mobile testing unites to your campus and more. Then register your event so it can be added to the NYHAAD map and seen with the multitude of events young people and their allies are holding all over the country! 

But we also need your help. Show us what young people need in order to reach an AIDS-free generation!
