National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NBHAAD) is observed annually on February 7th. This day is dedicated to raising awareness about the impact of HIV/AIDS in Black communities, promoting HIV prevention, and encouraging testing and treatment. NBHAAD focuses on addressing the disproportionate impact of HIV in African American communities, where individuals are more likely to be diagnosed with HIV and face barriers to care.
The day serves as a reminder of the ongoing work needed to reduce stigma, increase access to healthcare, and empower individuals with the knowledge and resources to protect their health.
The observance of National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day is a powerful call to action, reminding everyone of the importance of testing, knowing your status, and the role each person plays in reducing the spread of HIV and supporting those affected.
