HIVE was thrilled to attend WORLD and AHF’s International Women’s Day event, Rise Above HIV as a community partner on Wednesday, March 8th, 2017. The event was an evening of intimate conversations and music featuring Raheem DeVaughn and Goapale.
I found PrEP to be beneficial for me because I had two sex partners and wanted to protect us all and improve my chances of remaining HIV negative. I am aware that PrEP doesn?t prevent other STIs or pregnancy, but I think using it is a good choice for me to prevent HIV.
Participatory action research is awesome. It is grounded on the idea that lived experience is important and including community members throughout the research process is essential.
