Bounce to Zero, ending the HIV epidemic. HIV Stigma Testimonial: Voices of Change - Robert
In this powerful testimonial, Robert shares his journey with HIV stigma, highlighting how knowledge and awareness can change lives. Stigma, especially when reinforced by laws, creates fear and harm — but it doesn’t have to be this way.
🤝 When we educate ourselves, we empower each other. Knowing your status, understanding HIV, and sharing this knowledge is how we break down barriers and end stigma. Together, we can create a world where no one feels shame or fear because of their status.
💪🏽 Knowledge is power. Take a stand today: learn more, spread awareness, and help end HIV stigma. Visit bouncetozero.com to get involved.
