2025-10-15 | Washtenaw County Health Department, 555 Towner St, Ypsilanti, MI, United States
October 15 marks National Latino AIDS Awareness Day (NLAAD), a nationwide community initiative that promotes HIV testing, prevention, and access to HIV treatment within diverse communities, addressing the unique health challenges faced by the Hispanic/Latino population.

In 2025, NLAAD centers its efforts on HIV testing, recognizing it as a critical step in ending the epidemic. An estimated 170,000 people in the United States are living with HIV and unaware of their status. This gap in diagnosis delays access to life-saving treatment and increases the risk of unknowingly transmitting the virus.

By promoting testing, NLAAD aims to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and empower individuals to take control of their health.

Call 734-544-6700 to schedule a free HIV test! We can also help with STI testing, PrEP, PEP, pregnancy testing, birth control, vaccinations, and more!

Hoy, 15 de octubre, The Well Project conmemora el Día Nacional Latino para la Concientización del SIDA (#NLAAD), una movilización comunitaria que promueve métodos eficaces de prevención y tratamiento del VIH entre comunidades latinas. ➡️ nlaad.org/
El enfoque de este año son las #pruebasdelvih. Se estima que 170,000 personas en EE.UU. viven con VIH y desconocen su estado. Esta brecha en los diagnósticos retrasa el acceso a tratamientos que salvan la vida y aumenta las probabilidades de transmisión del VIH.
Entre los factores cruciales para las comunidades latinas se incluyen:
✴️ Entre las personas viviendo con VIH, las #mujeres latinas tienen tres veces más probabilidades de ser diagnosticadas con VIH que las mujeres blancas
✴️ La persecución injusta y cruel actual contra les inmigrantes latines por la administración estadounidense podría causar temor a hacerse la prueba del VIH o a divulgar su condición
✴️ La falta de materiales educativos y de promoción de recursos sobre el VIH en un idioma que una persona puede entender o leer es una barrera a la concientización sobre el #VIH
Para responder a las necesidades de nuestres usuaries, The Well Project traduce o desarrolla muchas de nuestras hojas informativas, folletos, infografías y otros materiales en español. ¡Visite la sección de The Well Project en español!

Today October 15 is National Latinx HIV and AIDS Awareness Day ( #NLAAD ), and I want to honor the life @ceciliagentili72 and countless other Latine advocates, organizers, artists, and community members like @labamby @raifderrazi @granvarones @the_wall_las_memorias !! Cecilia helped shift care and resources needed for sex workers , helped decriminalized sex work, advocated for migrant undocumented people, and led so many efforts for Trans health care and HIV/AIDS care. She was also a badass artist, writer, and performer. I want to remember her in this photo taken by @oscmdiaz 🌹 In these times when medical care and access is being stripped & defunded for many of our communities I lean into the power of community care and resources- which in lowest of times have held us in so many way!!
This years #NLAAD campaign theme is “Should I get tested for HIV? Yes!” ❤️There are so many local community led organizations and clinics that continue to offer free testing. Many of these sites are migrant and multi language friendly. And that’s what we need. HIV prevention strategies and treatments have to be culturally informed, multi lingual for our Latine baddies that speak other languages outside of English, and that are taking precautions to make sure people are feeling safe during these increase ICE raids. In our many Latine communities we still need to address and tackle HIV stigma- which gets in the way of folks getting treatment. According to the CDC Latine people account for 32% of the 37,891 new HIV diagnoses in the United States in 2022. And this percentage continues to increase . Not only do we need to do our part to get tested but we need to encourage our community members to get tested too. And it doesn’t stop there, we also need to continue to address all the barriers in health care that contribute to the HIV epidemic among Latine people. It means better health policies, it means more funding, it means supporting and lifting local efforts in the South ( which accounts for many of the new cases).

National Latinx HIV Awareness Day
2025-10-15 | Louisiana Health Hub, Lafayette, LA, United States
October 15 has been nationally recognized as Latinx HIV/AIDS Awareness Day since 2003. HIV/AIDS disproportionately affects our Hispanic/Latinx communities — and many may not be aware of available services due to language barriers, limited mobility (transportation, etc.), and lack of familiarity with community public health resources, among other factors.
Hay recursos disponibles en Louisiana que pueden ayudar a protegerte a ti y a tu pareja(s). It is beneficial for you and your community to visit LAHHUB.org today! Help share the message to end the HIV epidemic.

Should you get tested for HIV? The answer is yes! This year, NLAAD (National Latinx AIDS Awareness Day) focuses on the importance of testing for HIV. Statements like “he said he was allergic to latex” or “her Grindr profile said she was negative” are all the more reasons to get tested for HIV.
Take care of your health, know your status, and protect yourself and others!

National Latinx AIDs Awareness Day is October 15th—a reminder of the importance of HIV education, prevention, testing, and treatment that centers the needs of Latinx communities. According to AIDsVu, Hispanic/Latinx people account for 27% of new HIV diagnoses annually, but only 17% of new pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) users. Closing this gap in medication access is critical to ensuring all people at risk of HIV can prevent infection, while also addressing the systemic issues that contribute to HIV vulnerability in Latinx populations.
Join us on October 15th for our National Latinx AIDs Awareness Day event to learn more about our free HIV testing services, treatment options, and Whittier’s work to end health disparities in the Latinx community.

Despite the availability of highly effect HIV prevention and treatment options – Hispanic/Latinx communities continue to be disproportionately impacted by HIV —accounting for 34% of new HIV diagnoses in 2023 while making up only ~19% of the U.S. population.
Equity means ensuring everyone can access HIV testing, PrEP, and treatment. Tell Congress to save lives by fully funding federal HIV programs! See the link in bio.

We are grateful to be together with our community at Encuentro this year on National Latinx AIDS Awareness Day!
As we gather with our siblings and allies, we are reminded that our struggles are collective. The criminalization of immigrants, people living with HIV, and LGBTQ+ communities are deeply connected, and many of us live at the intersections of these identities. When access to healthcare and essential resources is taken away, it only fuels more criminalization and harm.
That’s why we must practice solidarity every day — showing up for one another, protecting one another, and fighting for systems rooted in care, not punishment.
In the words of Dr. Christy Pérez, “We need to bring everyone into the village, because we need each other now more than ever before.”
———
¡Estamos agradecides de estar reunides con nuestra comunidad en Encuentro este año, en el Día Nacional Latino del VIH/SIDA!
Al reunirnos con nuestras hermanes y aliades, recordamos que nuestras luchas son colectivas. La criminalización de las personas inmigrantes, las personas que viven con VIH y las comunidades LGBTQ+ están profundamente conectadas y muches de nosotres vivimos en la intersección de estas identidades. Cuando se quita el acceso a la atención médica y a los recursos esenciales, solo se alimenta más la criminalización y el daño.
Por eso debemos practicar la solidaridad todos los días — acompañándonos, protegiéndonos y luchando por sistemas basados en el cuidado, no en el castigo.
En palabras de la Dra. Christy Pérez, “Necesitamos traer a todas las personas al pueblo, porque nos necesitamos más que nunca.”
