National HIV Prevention Day Event

National HIV Prevention Day is observed annually on July 17th & was established by PrEP4All in 2018 as call to action to advance a simple yet urgent belief that HIV prevention is a human right & access to lifesaving prevention tools should never depend on income, insurance status, geography or politics. Jeremiah Johnson, PrEP4All Executive Director stated, “At a moment when HIV prevention programs in the United States & around the world face unprecedented threats to funding & access, we believe National HIV Prevention Day presents an important opportunity to elevate the conversation around prevention, celebrate the extraordinary scientific tools available to us & recommit ourselves to ensuring those tools reach everyone who needs them.” This year PrEP4All will mark National HIV Prevention Day with a public activation & press event in NYC. There will be an official proclamation recognizing National HIV Prevention Day in the Borough of Manhattan with remarks from leading public health & community voices, live performances & calls to action supporting equitable access to HIV prevention.
