SUMMARY:National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day
DESCRIPTION:National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day\nNational Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NWGHAAD) is dedicated to raising awareness about the impact of HIV on women and girls. First observed in 2005\, NWGHAAD highlights ongoing efforts to improve HIV prevention\, treatment\, and care services among women and girls. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Women’s Health leads the U.S. government’s NWGHAAD observance. \nDespite tremendous advances in HIV research over the last 40 years\, women—particularly women of color and young women—remain disproportionately affected by HIV. Additional research is critical to understanding the best ways to prevent\, treat\, and cure HIV across women’s lifespans. It is also essential that HIV research prioritizes diverse populations to ensure all women receive access to HIV services that will work for their needs and preferences. \nThe National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of AIDS Research (OAR) and Office of Research on Women’s Health (ORWH) launched the HIV and Women Signature Program in 2023 to advance the NIH vision for women’s health\, a world in which all women and girls receive evidence-based HIV care\, prevention\, and treatment tailored to their unique needs\, circumstances\, and goals. The Signature Program recognizes the importance of community engagement to ensure that NIH HIV research reflects the concerns of community members and that HIV prevention and treatment services are tailored for different communities and populations.

SUMMARY:National Native HIV/AIDS Awareness Day
DESCRIPTION:National Native HIV/AIDS Awareness Day\nNational Native HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NNHAAD) highlights efforts to address HIV and raise awareness of its impact in American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities. First observed in 2007\, NNHAAD encourages HIV education\, testing\, prevention\, and treatment among AI/AN communities. The National Native HIV Network organizes NNHAAD\, held annually on March 20\, and coordinates related activities. \nIssues such as HIV-related stigma\, lack of awareness\, and limited access to HIV services contribute to a disproportionate impact of HIV in AI/AN communities. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC): \n\nThere were 3\,270 AI/AN individuals with HIV in the United States in 2021.\nThere were an estimated 223 new HIV diagnoses among AI/AN individuals in 2021.\nFor every 100 AI/AN people with HIV\, an estimated 80 people are aware of their HIV status—the lowest rate of any racial or ethnic group.\n\nThe National Institutes of Health (NIH) HIV research program\, coordinated by the NIH Office of AIDS Research (OAR)\, supports research to reduce HIV-related disparities based on race and ethnicity. This includes efforts to better understand and address HIV-related stigma and discrimination\, which can discourage people from accessing HIV services. NIH HIV research also looks at the most effective ways to encourage AI/AN populations to access HIV testing\, prevention\, and treatment services. Efforts to address HIV among AI/AN populations must recognize diversity among Tribal communities and ensure interventions are culturally appropriate.

SUMMARY:National Youth HIV/AIDS Awareness Day
DESCRIPTION:National Youth HIV/AIDS Awareness Day\nNational Youth HIV & AIDS Awareness Day (NYHAAD) highlights the impact of HIV in young people and raises awareness about ongoing efforts in HIV prevention\, testing\, and treatment for this population. First observed in 2013\, NYHAAD is organized by Advocates for Youth\, an organization that works with communities to ensure youth have tools to prevent HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). \nToday’s youth have never known a world without HIV. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC): \n\nIn 2021\, 19 percent of new HIV diagnoses were among young people aged 13-24.\nOnly 6 percent of high school students have ever been tested for HIV. For every 100 people with HIV aged 13-24\, 56 people know their HIV status\, the lowest of any age group in the United States. Getting an HIV test is critical so people know their HIV status and can access treatment\, if needed.\nAmong people aged 13-24 who have been diagnosed with HIV and know their HIV status\, 80 percent received some HIV care\, more than in any other age group. In addition\, 55 percent of people with diagnosed HIV in this age group were retained in care\, and 65 percent were virally suppressed. People with HIV who are virally suppressed have undetectable viral loads and will not transmit HIV to sexual partners\, a concept known as Undetectable = Untransmittable (U=U).\n\nThe National Institutes of Health (NIH) HIV research program\, coordinated by the NIH Office of AIDS Research (OAR)\, supports research on HIV prevention\, testing\, and treatment for different populations\, including youth. This includes research to understand effective strategies to encourage youth to access HIV services.

SUMMARY:HIV Long-Term Survivors Awareness Day
DESCRIPTION:HIV Long-Term Survivors Awareness Day\nHIV Long-Term Survivors Awareness Day (HLTSAD) honors long-term survivors of HIV and increases visibility of their needs\, health issues\, and journeys. The annual observance on June 5 coincides with the anniversary of the first reported cases of what later became known as AIDS. \nHIV long-term survivors include several groups: \n\nPeople who have had HIV for 10 years or longer\nAdults with HIV who acquired the virus perinatally during or soon after birth\nPeople who were diagnosed with HIV before the availability of antiretroviral therapy (ART) in 1996.\n\nWith decades of successful HIV research and new treatments\, people with HIV are living longer\, resulting in a growing population of long-term survivors. This population may experience complications associated with long-term exposure to the virus\, the toxicity of many early HIV treatments that caused life-altering side effects\, and long-term ART use. HLTSAD encourages advocates to support efforts to improve quality of life for long-term survivors with HIV.

SUMMARY:National HIV Testing Day
DESCRIPTION:  \n\nNational HIV Testing Day\nNational HIV Testing Day (NHTD) was first observed on June 27\, 1995. This is a day to encourage people to get tested for HIV\, know their status\, and get linked to care and treatment. \nAccording to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)\, in 2022\, an estimated 1.2 million people in the United States had HIV\, but 13 percent of people with HIV did not know their HIV status. HIV testing is the pathway to engage people in care and help them stay healthy\, regardless of the test result. People who have a positive HIV test can start antiretroviral therapy (ART) to stay healthy. People who have a negative HIV test can learn how to access HIV prevention options like pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and condoms. CDC recommends that everyone aged 13–64 get tested for HIV at least once as part of routine health care. People with certain risk factors—such as having sex with someone who has HIV\, sharing needles or drug injection equipment\, or being treated for another sexually transmitted infection (STI)—should be tested for HIV at least once per year. \nThe National Institutes of Health (NIH) HIV research program\, coordinated by the NIH Office of AIDS Research\, supports research into new technology that will make it easier for people to get tested for HIV. NIH also conducts research to understand the best strategies to encourage HIV testing and improve access to HIV prevention and treatment services.

SUMMARY:National Faith HIV/AIDS Awareness Day
DESCRIPTION:National Faith HIV/AIDS Awareness Day\nThe last Sunday in August is National Faith HIV & AIDS Awareness Day (NFHAAD). NFHAAD is a day to engage faith communities to work together for HIV/AIDS education\, prevention\, treatment\, care\, and support\, and to reduce and eliminate stigma and discrimination. \nReaching All HIV+ Muslims in America (RAHMA) and its partners have led the events of this awareness day across the nation\, reaching thousands of people of various faiths across the United States to take a stand against stigma in their congregations to help raise awareness about HIV. RAHMA and its partners lead the planning for NFHAAD. RAHMA held the first NFHAAD observance in 2017. \nFaith communities are encouraged to learn about the status of HIV funding in their state\, nationally\, and internationally\, and take action to sustain and increase HIV prevention\, treatment\, and care services for all who require them. Faith communities fighting for freedom and fairness together can end HIV-related stigma and discrimination—one day\, each year\, until there is a cure!

SUMMARY:National HIV/AIDS and Aging Awareness Day
DESCRIPTION:National HIV/AIDS and Aging Awareness Day\nSeptember 18 is National HIV/AIDS and Aging Awareness Day (NHAAD)\, dedicated to raising awareness about long-term HIV survivors and people living with HIV who are ages 50 and older. Due to biomedical improvements in HIV treatment\, people living with HIV (PLWH)\ncan achieve and maintain viral suppression and live long and healthy lives. \nNHAAD is a crucial opportunity to recognize the unique challenges that older people living with HIV and those at-risk face in accessing HIV testing\, care\, and treatment. Advancements in HIV treatments have lowered the likelihood of AIDS-defining illnesses among\nthose living with HIV\, but HIV-associated conditions such as cardiovascular diseases\, diabetes\, renal disease\, and cancer can persist in older individuals living with HIV. In addition\, greater social isolation\, loneliness\, and stigma can impact the health\nand well-being of older individuals living with HIV. \nIn 2023\, people aged 55 and up accounted for 42% of people living with HIV in the U.S.—with those 55–64 comprising 26% of the population living with HIV\, the largest share of any age group. Despite high prevalence rates\, only a minority of individuals 65 and\nolder have ever tested for HIV. This is likely due to lack of awareness or stigma\, which can affect quality of life\, self-image\, and behaviors such as HIV status disclosure or seeking HIV care. \nPeople aged 55 to 64 accounted for 7% of the 39\,182 new HIV diagnoses in 2023\, and 2% of new diagnoses were among those 65 and older. According to recent CDC data\, 33.4% of people aged 55 to 64 and 33.9% of people aged 65 and older who received a new HIV diagnosis\nin 2023 already had late-stage HIV infection (AIDS) when they were diagnosed—underscoring the need for routinized HIV screening in these populations.
