More about the US HIV & AIDS Coalition
The US HIV & AIDS Faith Coalition is composed of people of faith, faith leaders, and people working in the HIV and AIDS response who join in coalition to develop strategies and take actions to strengthen the engagement, effectiveness, and capacity of houses of worship and faith-based organizations. We are focused on the role of faith in attaining and fast-tracking the U.S. We organize webinars and other events, including a faith pre-conference to the US HIV & AIDS Conference. The faith pre-conference includes keynote addresses, panel discussions with persons living with and affected by HIV, breakout sessions on disparities and social determinants related to health, and disparities in sexuality education. Participants engage in the discussions, participate in the development of strategies, and network with colleagues working in and with faith communities. USCA FAITH COALITION LEADERS

World AIDS Day is a critical reminder of our commitment to end the HIV epidemic. This year's theme, "Overcoming disruption, transforming the AIDS response," highlights the ongoing challenges we face, including government erasure, funding cuts, and stigma. The U.S. HIV/AIDS Faith Coalition is dedicated to remembering those lost, supporting individuals living with HIV, and advocating for their human rights and dignity. Together, We remember. We honor. We fight. We love. Until justice, healing, and wholeness are the lived reality for all.

ACTION ALERT!
There are reports that the Trump administration intends to make drastic cuts to HIV funding, including the elimination of the CDC HIV Prevention Division. This could happen within the next 24 hours.

This is urgent! Please call your Senators and Representatives and tell them to do everything they can to stop these cuts.
Find your elected officials by calling the US Capitol Switchboard:
202-224-3121 (Senate)
202-225-3121 (House).

If the Trump administration follows through, more people will contract HIV, more people will get sick, and more people will die. Prevention, together with treatment and care, is an essential component of ending the HIV epidemic.

We must take action now. There is no time to waste!
