CAP Honors National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NBHAAD)

Portland, OR | February 2, 2016 - February 27, 2016Cascade AIDS Project (CAP) is honoring National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NBHAAD), a community mobilization initiative designed to encourage Blacks in our community to get educated, get tested, get involved, and get treated.

2016 marks the 16th year for National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NBHAAD), a national HIV testing and treatment community mobilization initiative targeted at Blacks in the United States and the Diaspora.  NBHAAD was founded in 1999 as a national response to the growing HIV and AIDS epidemic in African American communities.

This year’s 1st Annual National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NBHAAD) celebration will be held at Charles Jordan Community Center located at 9009 N Foss Ave, Portland, OR. Come celebrate with us as we offer fun for the entire family, food (while supplies last), and music. CAP will also offer incentives for those willing to take part in the free rapid HIV testing (with results in 20 minutes).
