September 21, is A Day with HIV in America. On that single day, people across America — gay and straight, positive and negative, anyone affected by HIV — can grab a digital camera and “take a shot” to chronicle a time in their day that tells a story about living with HIV.
You can submit that image to the “A Day with HIV in America” photo essay project at www.adaywithhivinamerica.com. Together, these images will create a remarkable patchwork of stories about HIV in America.
Take a look at more of the photos from last year’s album (www.adaywithhivinamerica.com). We hope it inspires you to take a photo on Wednesday, September 21, and send in your photograph by September 26 to “A Day with HIV in America” at the link above. Selected photos will appear in the November/December issue of Positively Aware and will be unveiled at the U.S. Conference on AIDS in Chicago from November 10-13. All submissions will be featured in our online gallery.
The hundreds of photographs we collect and share will show us glimpses of people who spend each day facing HIV and give us examples of courage, strength, purpose, and triumph. Join us on September 21, and take your best shot.
