Thank you for addressing this very real challenge . WORDS do matter.
Hi Jackie, thanks so much for your support!
Words have stigma & can hurt feelings. Also words can get in the way of treatment if they harm & scare people away.
Hi Penny, we totally agree!
#language that people use against someone like myself that have been positive going on six years in September, the smallest words comments can be the ones that kill us inside.
Hi William, we understand, that’s why we’re committed to changing our language and educating others. <3
