More about the US HIV & AIDS Coalition
The US HIV & AIDS Faith Coalition is composed of people of faith, faith leaders, and people working in the HIV and AIDS response who join in coalition to develop strategies and take actions to strengthen the engagement, effectiveness, and capacity of houses of worship and faith-based organizations. We are focused on the role of faith in attaining and fast-tracking the U.S. We organize webinars and other events, including a faith pre-conference to the US HIV & AIDS Conference. The faith pre-conference includes keynote addresses, panel discussions with persons living with and affected by HIV, breakout sessions on disparities and social determinants related to health, and disparities in sexuality education. Participants engage in the discussions, participate in the development of strategies, and network with colleagues working in and with faith communities. USCA FAITH COALITION LEADERS

Join us for The Divine Feminine: Black Women, Faith & HIV — a powerful conversation exploring how faith and the lived experiences of Black women intersect with HIV.

Black women have long been the anchors of our communities—shaping faith traditions, holding families together, and leading movements for justice. Yet when conversations about HIV, sexuality, and women's bodies arise, faith spaces can fill with silence and stigma.

Together, we will reflect on the ways Black women have navigated these spaces, the power they hold to shift narratives, and what it means to reclaim spiritual language that affirms womanhood, autonomy, and healing.

World AIDS Day is a critical reminder of our commitment to end the HIV epidemic. This year's theme, "Overcoming disruption, transforming the AIDS response," highlights the ongoing challenges we face, including government erasure, funding cuts, and stigma. The U.S. HIV/AIDS Faith Coalition is dedicated to remembering those lost, supporting individuals living with HIV, and advocating for their human rights and dignity. Together, We remember. We honor. We fight. We love. Until justice, healing, and wholeness are the lived reality for all.
