Upcoming Events

Did you know October 15th is National Latinx AIDS Awareness Day (NLAAD)?

This day brings attention to the disproportionate impact of HIV in Hispanic/Latinx communities and emphasizes the importance of HIV testing, education, and reducing stigma. NLAAD serves as a community-driven effort to raise awareness about HIV prevention, treatment options, and the resources available to stop the transmission of HIV among Hispanic/Latinx individuals. It’s a key opportunity to promote health equity and engage in meaningful conversations about HIV within these communities.

October 26th, 2024, is National Drug Take Back Day! Drug Take Back Day is a national event that provides a safe, convenient, and responsible way for people to dispose of unused or expired prescription medications. More details to come.
