National Transgender HIV Testing Day, April 18, 2024

April 18 is National Transgender HIV Testing Day (NTHTD)! This day stands as a powerful reminder of the ongoing impact of HIV within transgender communities and emphasizes the vital need for regular HIV testing and access to care services. It’s a moment for us to unite, raise awareness, and advocate for the health and well-being of transgender and nonbinary individuals.

As we mark NTHTD this year, let’s amplify awareness, support, and resources. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of transgender and gender diverse people affected by HIV. Join us in the journey to end stigma, promote testing, and ensure equitable access to care.
