National Native HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NNHAAD) is observed annually on March 20th (the first day of Spring) to promote HIV testing, prevention, and treatment within American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian communities. First observed in 2007, it highlights the unique impact of HIV on Native communities.
Let’s continue to end stigma, educate, as well as increase awareness and access to community specific resources to reduce the disproportionate impact of HIV in indigenous populations.
