Today is May 19: National Asian & Pacific Islander HIV/AIDS Awareness Day

Today is May 19, National Asian & Pacific Islander HIV/AIDS Awareness Day and World Hepatitis Day. This blog post is one of a series on the impact of HIV and Hepatitis B in Asian & Pacific Islander communities. As A&PIs, you may not believe that you are at risk for these diseases, but you are. Follow our posts throughout the week for different perspectives and stories from the community.

Kiran Ahuja is the Executive Director of the White House Initiative on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. She is responsible for directing the efforts of the White House Initiative and the Presidential Advisory Commission on AAPIs to advise federal agency leadership on the implementation and coordination of federal programs as they relate to AAPIs across executive departments and agencies.

Kiran sat down with A&PI Wellness Center Executive Director Lance Toma to film a special message to the community for May 19. We hope that you are able to participate in this call to action!
