Today, on HIV Long-Term Survivors Awareness Day, we honor the strength, courage, and resilience of those who have lived through decades of the HIV epidemic.

The AIDS Memorial Quilt stands as a powerful reminder of the lives lost, the stories remembered, and the communities forever changed. It also reminds us of the survivors who continue to carry memories, advocate for others, and inspire hope.

Today we recognize the long-term survivors whose journeys reflect extraordinary perseverance in the face of stigma, loss, and uncertainty. We honor their experiences, celebrate their contributions, and recommit ourselves to ending HIV-related stigma and ensuring compassionate care for all.

The House Appropriations Subcommittee just approved a funding proposal that would ZERO OUT Title X funding in fiscal year (FY) 2027.

The Title X family planning program is a lifeline. It creates access to essential health services for all who need them, regardless of their ability to pay or their insurance.

If Congress approves stripping the funds from this program, it will impact millions of people who rely on Title X for:

1. Contraception
2. Cancer screenings
3. STI & HIV prevention, testing, and treatment
4. Other family planning and sexual health services

☀️ Is "Summer P***s" really a thing?

While warmer weather may make some men notice temporary changes due to heat and increased blood flow, experts say there's no permanent size increase. What summer can bring, however, is more sweat, irritation, chafing, and other concerns "down there."

Men's reproductive and sexual health matters year-round. Title X family planning clinics offer confidential services including STI testing, preventive care, birth control counseling, and reproductive health education.

This summer, stay cool, stay healthy, and don't ignore changes in your body. Find a Title X clinic near you and take charge of your health.

The summer sun won't make your p***s bigger. But it will make it stinkier.

🧠 S*x Ed Wednesday: Puberty Changes

Your body changes a lot during puberty — and everyone develops at their own pace. From growth spurts and body hair to hormones, skin changes, and emotional ups and downs, puberty is a normal part of growing up.

Understanding what’s happening in your body can help you feel more confident and prepared for the changes that come with adolescence. Remember: there’s no “perfect” timeline for puberty.
Title X Family Planning Clinics provide confidential education and sexual health services for adolescents and adults, including wellness exams, STI testing, birth control counseling, and more.
