This observance is an opportunity to increase HIV education, testing, community involvement, and treatment among black communities.  The first National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NBHAAD) was marked in 1999 as a grassroots-education effort to raise awareness about HIV and AIDS prevention, care, and treatment in communities of color. https://www.hiv.gov/events/awareness-days/black

Every year on March 10, organizations come together to shed light on the impact of HIV on women and girls to show support for those at risk of, and living with, HIV. https://www.hiv.gov/events/awareness-days/women-and-girls
