Planning an awareness activity
HIV.gov provides an activity-planning guide. The guide does not certify a local event, organizer, clinical service, privacy practice, or sponsor.
Before promoting an event: verify the organizer, location, accessibility, consent and photography practices, sensitive-data handling, sponsor relationships, and any clinical services. Use the Community Finder only for separately verified local events.
