STD Awareness Week

STD Awareness Week, observed the second full week in April, provides an opportunity to raise awareness about STDs and how they impact our lives; reduce STD-related stigma, fear, and discrimination; and ensure people have the tools and knowledge to prevent, test for, and treat STDs.

*STI (Sexually Transmitted Infection) has replaced STD (Sexually Transmitted Disease) as the preferred terminology, however the observance itself is still referred to as STD Awareness Week.
