Part of Ventura County’s annual observance of World AIDS Day, this three-part program invites everyone to consider HIV/AIDS not just a medical issue, but as a social justice issue.
Join us first for HIV/AIDS 101, a sexual health education session from 2:15–3:15 p.m. Then stay for the Positively Speaking panel of local residents living with HIV/AIDS from 3:20–5 p.m. The event concludes with a nondenominational vigil beginning at 5 p.m. The vigil is an act of commitment: to stand with others in loss, against injustice, and connected in hope.
Admission is free. Sponsored by the Sarah W. Heath Center for Equality and Justice (CEJ), Sociology Department, Religion Department, HIV/AIDS Coalition of Ventura County, Ventura County Public Health and Planned Parenthood California Central Coast. For information, contact the CEJ at (805) 493-3694 or[email protected].
