National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day Event at Tuskegee University
This year we will be celebrating National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day with Tuskegee University’s TU Safe Space crew. TKO will provide free testing onsite.
February 7 is National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NBHAAD), a day to highlight the progress of HIV testing, prevention, and treatment efforts and consider our ongoing challenges to preventing HIV transmission among Black/African American people in the United States.
This year’s theme, Engage, Educate, Empower: Uniting to End HIV/AIDS in Black Communities, emphasizes the role we each play in ending HIV and inspires us to challenge the racism, homophobia, poverty, stigma, and other socioeconomic factors that continue to drive health disparities and create barriers to HIV testing, prevention, and care services in Black communities.

Freedom and Flow
Join us virtually on Tues. February 4th from 6:30-8pm for a writing workshop where attendees can feel safe, affirmed and have the freedom to self-define.
We plan to open with topics related to acknowledging the state of the world, how it is impacting us and how we can be radically responsible for our well-being and the well-being of our community.
We want to keep the group small so everyone can feel comfortable collaborating so we're limiting the group to 8-10 people & signup will be first come first served.
Don't worry if you missed one, we'll have more! Signup is required to participate.
Your information will NOT be shared outside of our organization. Email Joshua.baker@tkosociety.com
