Happy Inters*x Awareness Day! 💛🟣💛

It’s common for people to use the words “female” & “male” when describing bodily traits. Many s*x education classes use these words to talk about body parts. But inters*x people often have anatomy that does not line up in either of those two exact ways.

This Inters*x Awareness Day, upgrade your vocabulary to be more inclusive! 🔗 Read more: interactadvocates.org/inters*x-awareness-day-for-allies

Thank you interACT for the guide! 🙌

This weekend, the federal government shutdown enters its third week. But, public health isn’t partisan – it’s protection. 👏

Join Equitas Health, AIDS United, and others in calling on Congress to fully fund HIV prevention, treatment, and resource programs. This funding saves lives and sustains progress toward ending the HIV epidemic.

This funding – along with health insurance tax credits (also known as enhance Premium Tax Credits or ePTCs) – saves lives and strengthens communities. Every dollar cut today will risk countless lives and cost American taxpayers more tomorrow.
