Show Your Pride Toolkit

Looking for content to challenge HIV stigma? We’ve got you covered! This edition of our Let’s Stop HIV Together Social Media Toolkit contains ready-to-go messages for posting on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter.

Get Involved

You can raise awareness of HIV testing, address stigma and other barriers that prevent access to care, and encourage people to get tested and know their status using Let’s Stop HIV Together campaign resources.

Let’s Stop HIV Together aims to empower communities, partners, and healthcare providers to reduce HIV stigma and promote prevention, testing, and treatment among all people in the United States. With campaign resources, partners and other organizations can play a role in preventing HIV and helping people with HIV stay healthy. The Let’s Stop HIV Together campaign is part of the national Ending the HIV Epidemic in the U.S. (EHE) initiative and the North Carolina Ending the HIV Epidemic Plan.

Get the Word Out

Share these posts and images on social media tagging #StopHIVStigma and #StopHIVTogether anytime throughout the year!.

Follow and tag @NCDHHS on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.
