Today’s young people are the first generation who has never known a world without HIV and AIDS. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2010, young people ages 13 to 24 years old made up 17% of the US population, but accounted for an estimated 26% (12,200) of all new HIV infections (47,500) in the United States. 1 in 4 new HIV infections occurs in youth ages 13 to 24 years.
OUR VISION: To heal the emotional scars of cancer through
volunteerism, meaningful travel, and programs that reframe adversity and redefine what is possible.
OUR MISSION: A world where we are empowered to expand our stories beyond cancer.

“Care for us and accept us – we are all human beings. We are normal. We have hands. We have feet. We can walk, we can talk, we have needs just live everyone else – don’t be afraid of us – we are all the same!”
- An Aids Patient
"The global HIV/AIDS epidemic is an unprecedented crisis that requires an unprecedented response. In particular it requires solidarity -- between the healthy and the sick, between rich and poor, and above all, between richer and poorer nations. We have 30 million orphans already. How many more do we have to get, to wake up?"
-- Kofi Annan

Increase community awareness of HIV/AIDS and HIV prevention strategies.
Increase community understanding of the clinical research process.
Develop and strengthen relationships with community stakeholders, including (but not limited to) medical care providers, STD/HIV counseling and testing providers, faith leaders, Non Governmental Organizations and Community Based Organizations.
Increasingly, African Americans in general are recognizing that HIV is wreaking devastation across our communities. Those who have joined the fight against HIV and AIDS in Black communities are coming to understand that it is a difficult and multifaceted problem—but that it is also a winnable war. With this report, we aim to arm those people with the information they need to get there.

Where’s the Hope?, a year-long series of dialogues for solidarity, is coordinated by ReShape, an independent London-based think tank formed to respond to the ongoing crisis in sexual health.

Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

Act Against AIDS Leadership Initiative Community Art Project
1. Share Knowledge. Take Action.
National Women and Girls
HIV/AIDS Awareness Day 2014
Community Art Project
2. Farmworker Justice has partnered with the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s
(CDC) Act Against AIDS Leadership Initiative to
focus awareness and education efforts on one
of the most vulnerable and marginalized
groups in the United States: farmworkers.
3. Through this project, Farmworker Justice
provides free training, information, webinars,
and tools on HIV prevention to strengthen
non-HIV organizations’ awareness, knowledge,
and action within Latino communities across
the United States.
4. National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day
is a national campaign to raise awareness about HIV
and its impact on women and girls.
Farmworker Justice is proud to work with our Act
Against AIDS Leadership Initiative (AAALI) partners
ASPIRA and the National Hispanic Council on Aging
(NHCOA) to promote this important day.
5. Women and girls have been impacted by
HIV/AIDS since the beginning of the epidemic.
Women’s and girls’ risk of HIV is often
overlooked, although approximately 25% of
those infected with HIV in the United States
are women.
6. Black and Latina women are
disproportionately affected compared to
women of other races/ethnicities.
By the end of 2010, Black women accounted
for 64% of all estimated new HIV infections
among women and Latina women accounted
for an estimated 15%.

7. We partnered with our Latina AAALI partners
ASPIRA and NHCOA, and collected a series of
thoughts and reactions on HIV/AIDS and its
impact on women and girls.
8. The responses we got were truly moving.
Some women talked about when they first
learned about HIV or when they first
experienced the death of someone close to
them due to HIV.
9. Others admitted to not really even thinking
about women and HIV and they had not
realized that women have different risks than
men do and that some women may have a
harder time protecting themselves from HIV
or taking care of themselves if already
infected.
10. Some people sent powerful words that came
to mind when they thought about HIV and
women: fear, exposed, voiceless, orphans,
rape, mothers.
11. We received responses in English, Spanish,
and even Mixteco.
Thoughts came from farmworkers,
farmworker organizations, health centers,
youth, older adults, national organizations,
and organization Presidents and CEOs.
12. From each submission we received, we
created a word cloud image of a single hand.
We then combined the hands to create a
larger image of a tree to symbolize courage
and strength, life and growth.
13. Submission from Farmworker Justice Staff member:
Geographic and social isolation of farmworkers leads to risky behaviors that can spread HIV
among populations that are not able to deal with the consequences. The impacts are felt across
international borders. To help women and girls in farmworker communities, we need to be
proactive in our outreach and education efforts. Women and girls need information, tools and
strategies to help them understand and protect themselves against HIV. If women and girls feel
informed and empowered to defend themselves, they are more likely to ask questions, be
prepared, and take action. ---Virginia Ruiz, Director of Occupational & Environmental Health
Farmworker Justice
14.
15. Impact:
Through this collective art project, we were able to reduce
the stigma that surrounds HIV/AIDS by inviting non-health
organizations to think about HIV/AIDS and to educate
community partners about the challenges women and girls
face in receiving prevention information, securing testing, and
connecting with treatment.
