We are taking the #CutsKill Quilt Rally to IDWeek! If you aren't able to join us in person, tune in on our Instagram LIVE this Sunday, Oct. 20 @ 12:30 PM ET. #saveHIVfunding

IDWeek is a few days away and we are highlighting a few HIV-related sessions that you may want to attend. This symposium will discuss therapeutic options and implementation strategies for HIV prevention. View the full IDWeek schedule here: https://bit.ly/48oDcnt

“I want to tell [queer and trans kids] there’s nothing wrong with who they are, conversion therapy is a lie, and they deserve to live a life authentically. Your identity is beautiful, you’re a miracle, and don’t let conversion therapy take that away.” Civil Rights Attorney Ryan Kendall

Today, the U.S. Supreme Court is hearing oral arguments in a landmark case, Chiles v. Salazar, concerning Colorado’s state law protecting LGBTQ youth from so-called “conversion therapy." Learn more about the case: glaad.org/fact-sheet-l...

We can end the HIV epidemic in Massachusetts. PrEP can nearly eliminate HIV transmission. But many people still can't access this game-changing medication.

H.1245/S.717 gives us a path forward. This bill will make PrEP widely available and bring us closer to ending the HIV epidemic for good.

PrEP is a proven tool to stop HIV transmission, but only 35% of people at risk for HIV in Massachusetts are using it.

H.1245/S.717 will remove barriers, expand access, and safeguard HIV prevention in MA—no matter what happens on the federal level.

40 years ago, the idea that someone with HIV would live decades was unimaginable; now people with HIV are living well into their golden years. We believe LGBTQ+ elders living with HIV deserve to age with dignity.

Honor National HIV & Aging Awareness Day by sharing this post. ❤️

More than half of people living with HIV in the U.S. are 50+—a powerful reminder of resilience, progress, and the need for continued care and support. We must urge Congress to protect HIV funding and programs so we don’t lose this progress! Call your Reps here: bit.ly/4m0qpuG #NHAAD
