The ABCs of HIV from The Stigma Project.
We have come a long way in the fight against HIV/AIDS: Since the Millennium Development Goals were first adopted in 2000 through 2013, new HIV infections fell by roughly 40%.
But the HIV/AIDS epidemic continues to affect millions of people around the world and in the U.S, with marginalized communities disproportionately impacted and millions newly infected each year. In some of the hardest hit areas globally, adolescent girls and young women face poverty, gender inequality, exclusion, discrimination, lack of education, and violence, which put them at increased risk of acquiring HIV.
This World AIDS Day please continue to #StandWithPP and support efforts to end HIV/AIDS. Now is the time to move forward, not backward, on this issue which has impacted so many millions around the world. Let’s protect our progress, and double down on our efforts to end this epidemic.
Far too many people in the black community face unequal access to proper health care and education services, especially when it comes to HIV and AIDS. At Planned Parenthood, we’re proud to work together with community leaders to increase health care access & create greater opportunities.

Today is World AIDS Day. See how young people in Kenya are taking health into their own hands, providing basic reproductive health counseling and contraceptive access to their peers, classmates, and friends: http://p.ppfa.org/1y4vral
