Let's talk facts, not fear. 🫶

Swipe for your medication abortion crash course, and stay tuned for Part 3, where we're breaking down the laws and access options. 👀✨

With Latinx Heritage Month coming to an end, we want to share a message from ECHO member Violeta Buse, speaking on the continued fight against prejudice, misinformation, and systemic inequities surrounding HIV in the Latinx community. We hope their words serve as a reminder that the strength to stop HIV is formed in community.

Every day, not just today, we honor and recognize Indigenous communities for their resilience and continued fight for sovereignty. Their leadership and culture have shaped the land and communities we live in today and deserve to be celebrated and protected.

This National Coming Out Day, we’re honoring a community that continues to be resilient, courageous, and unashamed about who they are. Q***r and trans people have historically shared their stories, spoken their truths, and used their voices to advocate for change. 🏳️‍🌈🫶❤️

Together, we hold the power to protect and fight for the rights of LGBTQ youth and protect a future where we can be free as our authentic selves.
