What it reported doing in 2024

This year we launched our She is PrEPalicious? HIV Prevention Program and Multi-Media Marketing Campaign in collaboration with the Florida Department of Health. This was the first campaign in Orlando, FL and second in the State of Florida to create a PrEP marketing campaign specifically for Black women. This campaign reached over 4.5 million people and we? ve provided PrEP education to more than 100 women and girls and 40 health care providers in the Central Florida Area since then. We hosted our 7th Annual I am a Queen Bee? HIV Awareness Symposium. Our theme was ? Queen of Hearts? where we highlighted several ways love is overpowering HIV. Our panelists consisted of two mixed status Serodiscordant couples that shared their love story as well as highlighted a panel of female HIV advocates who have the heart in helping end the HIV epidemic in our community. We awarded two women in advocacy with the Queen Bee? Award and educated more than 75 attendees. This event was sponsored by the Florida Department of Health, Black Women? s Health Imperative, and AIDS Healthcare Foundation, Southern AIDS Coalition, and HER Initiative. In efforts to combat the increased rates of HIV among Black women in Orange County, FL, we launched our research project with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Interdisciplinary Research Leaders IRL - ? Removing Obstacles to HIV Prevention for Black Women? in collaboration with two associate professors, Dr. Joe and Dr. Brown, at University of Central Florida and Rollins College, respectively. With the help of our colleagues and research assistants, we hosted two townhall meetings to hear from people in our community to better identify what the public health concerns, needs, and barriers are for Black women to access care in Orange County. We continued to establish several more partnerships and collaborations local business and several faith-based organizations to help increase HIV awareness and prevention messaging. Hosted several HIV Prevention Classes and we distributed more than 30,000 condoms throughout the Central Florida Area.
