HIV stigma is still one of the biggest barriers to testing, treatment, and honest conversation.
When people feel judged, they stay silent. When they stay silent, they may miss out on the care and support they deserve.
Ending stigma starts with education, compassion, and truth. HIV affects everyone, and we all have a role in creating a safer, more supportive community.

Understanding HIV starts with conversation.
And that conversation includes YOU.
Whether you are diagnosed or not,
whether you know someone living with HIV or not.

Education matters.
Stigma grows in silence.
But understanding grows through conversation.

That’s why LOTUS creates spaces where women can talk openly, ask questions, and learn the truth about HIV today.
Because when women support each other,
communities become stronger.

💜 Join the conversation.

Progress in the HIV response must include women and girls.

Despite representing about 1 in 5 new HIV diagnoses, women comprised only 9% of PrEP users in 2024, signaling continued unmet prevention needs.

On March 10, join us in recognizing  and amplifying resources that support prevention, care, and long-term health for women affected by HIV.

March 10, 2026 is National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NWGHAAD). Women living with HIV are often underrepresented in conversations about HIV, despite accounting for 19% of new HIV diagnoses in 2023.   

Black women are particularly impacted by HIV, representing nearly half of all new HIV diagnoses among women but only 13% of all women in 2023. The HIV epidemic also has a disproportionate impact on women in certain parts of the country; in 2023, new HIV diagnoses rates among women in the South were nearly twice as high as those in other regions of the U.S.

Today, we celebrate the strength, resilience, and brilliance of women everywhere.

Women are leaders.
Women are survivors.
Women are caregivers.
Women are changemakers.

Every woman carries a story of courage, whether she is raising a family, leading a movement, overcoming adversity, or simply showing up every day determined to keep going.

At LOTUS, we honor women who continue to rise, heal, and empower others.

To every woman:
Your voice matters.
Your story matters.
Your life matters.

Happy International Women’s Day.

Protection is power.
Knowledge is power.
Your health is power.

Carrying protection isn’t something to be ashamed of it’s a sign of self-respect, confidence, and responsibility.

At LOTUS (Loving Ourselves Thru Unity and Strength) we believe that protecting yourself and your partner is part of loving yourself.
✔ Protect your health
✔ Protect your future
✔ Protect your community

Condoms help prevent HIV and other STIs, and they remain one of the simplest and most effective tools to stay safe.

Strong women protect themselves.
Strong communities protect each other.

🌺 Stay protected. Stay informed. Stay empowered.
