We Won't Stop At Jones Street!

Past HIV Speaks on Jones Street 2026, We’re Still Building Statewide HIV Advocacy Power!

Our annual advocacy day, HIV Speaks, is a huge lift between us and the dozens of community members who contribute their presence, planning, and advocacy. Now that it’s been a couple of weeks and we’ve gotten to see all of your lovely photos and videos from the event, we’re excited to come out with this year’s numbers.

Over 80 people showed up to HIV Speaks on Jones Street! We had over 26 meetings scheduled with state policymakers on just that day, as well as countless walk-in meetings all over the Capitol building.

Enjoy some of the photos we’ve loved seeing, including highlights with some of the best merch we’ve had yet:
