Cascade AIDS Project and Urban League of Portland are proud to honor National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NBHAAD) on February 7 with a day of education and free HIV testing. 

National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day is observed each year on February 7 to “increase HIV education, testing, community involvement, and treatment among black communities”. Coordinated by the Strategic Leadership Council, thousands of organizations and groups across the world organize to address HIV disparities that exist within the Black community nationally and globally. This year’s NBHAAD theme, “Together for Love: Stop HIV Stigma” raises awareness that we all have a role to play in stopping HIV stigma.

The event will take place on February 7, 2020 at the Urban League of Portland’s main location (10 N Russell St). From 3:30-7pm there will be free walk-in HIV testing, PrEP educational talks, safer sex discussions, raffles giveaways (including a $100 Nike gift card), and food. Transportation assistance is available!
