Memories turned into plans, and plans were executed! ✨ Divinely appointed and perfectly aligned.

What an amazing day! The love, joy, and overwhelming support from the community filled the room with incredible energy. This was success at its finest.

Challenge accepted and she rose to the occasion. 💛 , we are so proud of you! And to all of our allies, y’all looked absolutely amazing.

To the Dandelions & Lifetime Survivor community you already know how we come. We saw you in the space, showing up and showing out! 🌼

And no, we won’t be tagging everyone. 😂 I know y’all want to know who was there, but you’ll have to hear it from them!

All jokes aside, thank you to everyone who made this gathering so special. New York, you definitely showed up and showed out.

Until we meet again... it’s time to clock out. ⏰💛

COMMUNITY WRITING ENGAGEMENT
Your Story. Your Voice. Your Timeline.

💛 We’re still feeling the power of our first Dandelion workshop!
A special thank you to Porchia for creating a space where everyone showed up, shared, and truly engaged.

Now, we’re inviting OUR ENTIRE COMMUNITY to join in.

📝 WRITING PROMPT

✨ It can be abstract, blurred, or incomplete

💭 NEXT STEP:
Choose ONE moment and turn it into:

• Or a reflection

👇🏾 ENGAGE WITH US

🫶🏾 THIS SPACE IS FOR EVERYONE
Whether you are living with HIV, love someone who is, or want to learn and support
YOU BELONG HERE.

✨ Because the truth is:
HIV can impact anyone.

🌍 YAB APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN‼️
Not everyone gets an opportunity that can change how they see the world… AND themselves.
We had our very own Ieshia Scott attend, and this is what she shared:
“My experience at YAB was amazing. I went home feeling refreshed and renewed. I encourage people born living with HIV to apply to the scholarship. Take time to give back and pour into youth that does not live with the same access but share in our diagnosis.
It was beautiful to witness how the orphanage makes the most out of their resources for themselves and community. To partake in fellowship, where faith seemed unwavering.”
✨ This isn’t just a trip…
✨ This is transformation
✨ This is purpose
✨ This is impact
Not everyone understands the level of change this brings but if you’re ready for an experience of a lifetime, this is YOUR moment.
💛 See the world through different eyes
💛 Give back in a meaningful way
💛 Connect with a global community
Apply today. Don’t miss this opportunity. .ms

🌼 National HIV/AIDS and Aging Awareness Day is more than a date on the calendar-
ITS OUR TRUTH.
, born with HIV, have carried this journey from birth into adulthood. We are the proof that survival is possible, but survival alone is not enough.
Today, we demand visibility, care, and respect for Llifetime survivors.

Aging with HIV is not a footnote! It’s a movement.
And Dandelions, Inc. Aka Dandelions Movement will keep making sure our voices are heard. 💛✨

✨Did you spot a Dandelion in full bloom at New York Fashion Week?! 🌼✨

Our very own powerhouse, Kim Canady , CEO of Conversations w/ Kim & DDLS Communications & Internal Affairs Director, graced the runway alongside fellow Dandelion/Lifetime Survivor leader Rev. Kaylee G who uses her platform to change the face of people born with HIV!

The stunning showcase, HIV Unwrapped, transformed fashion into art and advocacy + every handmade garment told a story, offering the world a bold and artistic lens on HIV.

From the runway ➡️ to ABC’s Channel 7 News ➡️ to streaming on Hulu this November—this moment is HISTORY in motion.

💛 THIS is what transformative advocacy looks like when Lifetime Survivors lead the way!

Let’s give some Dandilove to the people behind the scenes:

Day 3 at 🌼✨ Antoinette Jones Knowles facilitated a workshop on Parenting While Positive: Navigating Fertility, Family Planning, and Fear centered the voices of adults born with HIV who are now building families of their own.

We stressed the importance of language:: uplifting fathers born with HIV, honoring non-binary and gender-expansive birthing people, and naming autonomy as belonging to the parent.

Participants also received a chest/breastfeeding timeline to support informed, self-determined choices.

This session held space for parenting through trauma, disclosure, and stigma; while also uplifting joy, transparency, and family models rooted in love.

Thank you to our panelist:
Alyssa Crawford
Antoinette
And moderator Marlene 💜

Because Dandelions are not just PBWHIV;
we are parents
caregivers
and storytellers reshaping what legacy looks like for future generations. 🌱
