Bold, all caps white text at top reads, "HIV Stigma: Creating Barriers for Testing and Treatment". Smaller white text below reads, "During this training, we'll define the concept of stigma and its various levels while exploring how stigma manifests in many ways β whether drug-related, in the context of HIV, harmful anti-gay attitudes, or around sex β and impact people's willingness to get tested and treated. Through interactive activities, we'll reflect on personal experiences with stigma and examine how it is perpetuated. We'll take a closer look at the effect of language and labels and examine the many forms, elements, and functions of stigma to better understand how it operates in society."
