May 19 Is National Asian/Pacific Islander HIV/AIDS Awareness Day
EDGE READ TIME: 4 MIN.
The 12th annual National Asian and Pacific Islander HIV/AIDS Awareness Day will be held on Thursday, May 19. The theme is "Saving face can't make you safe. Talk about HIV for me, for you, for everyone."
The lead agency for this Awareness Day is The Banyan Tree Project -- a national campaign to end the silence and shame surrounding HIV/AIDS in Asian and Pacific Islander communities. To help commemorate the day, we've compiled an annotated list of online resources focusing on HIV/AIDS among Asians and Pacific Islanders.
