As we remember the lives lost on this World AIDS Day, I wanted to take a moment to recall my journey.<\/p>\n

I was 18 years old when I started as a Risk Reduction Specialist with Avenue 360 Health and Wellness, a community health system founded in the 1990s to take care of AIDS patients. Fifteen years and much growth later, I\u2019m still with this wonderful organization. I\u2019ve walked the tunnels of Houston\u2019s jail system. I\u2019ve been told, at times sternly, by clients which vein to draw blood from, as the one off limits had been used to shoot up. I\u2019ve diagnosed my best friend with HIV.<\/p>\n

The saying \u2018HIV does not discriminate\u2019 remains true, but the impact of HIV bears a heavy burden in racial and ethnic communities and in gay and bisexual men. The South, including Texas, accounts for more than half of new HIV diagnoses across the nation.<\/p>\n

We have every weapon in the toolbox to ensure that our communities stay healthy. Educating more people on using these tools to eradicate the HIV epidemic in Houston is why I stay in this fight. And it sure is a fight\u2014still.<\/p>\n

If COVID-19 has taught us anything, it is that we can be resilient in the most uncertain of situations. This World AIDS Day let\u2019s re-charge, and together stand strong against HIV.<\/p>\n

This World AIDS Day, stop by one of the locations below for a free, rapid HIV test.<\/p>\n
