Our newest video, "Facing AIDS for National HIV Testing Day," is a short, shareable video that anyone can use to jump-start a conversation with a loved one, to educate colleagues, to show at a local HIV awareness event, or share on social media. With the approach of National HIV Testing Day (NHTD) on June 27, we hope you will be able to use this video in your local NHTD events.
Facing AIDS for National HIV Testing Day?
Facing AIDS is a digital photo sharing initiative with the goal of reducing HIV-related stigma and promoting
HIV testing. Many AIDS.gov blog readers have contributed personal messages to the Facing AIDS photo gallery, most
recently in recognition of World AIDS Day (December 1, 2012 - visit the gallery to see the inspiring messages collected
over the five years of the initiative). Many of your Facing AIDS messages highlight the importance of confronting stigma and echo the theme of National HIV Testing Day: Take
the Test. Take Control. That consistency made it easy for our team to re-purpose the photos into the newest video in our Facing AIDS series.
