Join us December 12th as we come together for a community event in recognition of World AIDS Day and Indigenous AIDS Awareness Week. Together, we’ll share space, honour tradition, and strengthen the relationships that support our wellbeing.
This gathering is part of a larger commitment to awareness, understanding, and compassion. Indigenous AIDS Awareness Week reminds us why it matters to stand together—supporting those living with and affected by HIV/AIDS, reducing stigma, and uplifting Indigenous voices and experiences. Your presence helps build a healthier, more informed, and more connected community.
